How to edit existing layouts?

Definitions

Name: If necessary, change the name of the layout in this field;

Separator: define here which separator is used in the * .txt file. If it is a semicolon (;), just a period (.) Or just a comma (,). By default, this field is automatically filled in as a semicolon;

Decimal separator: define whether a semicolon is used to separate broken numbers.

EXAMPLE: A part can be 345.5 mm or 345,5 mm wide;

Has header: Define in this field, if the file should have a header or not.

Columns

The Columns tab displays the available columns to be added to the layout (left side) and the standard columns already defined by Cut Pro (right side) are displayed.

EXAMPLE: If you consider the identification of the customer and the display in the import layout, find the CustomerName option, in the left list, and add it to the layout.

IMPORTANT:

When adding the CustomerName option to the layout, you must also add it as a column in the file to be imported;

The columns of the file must be in the same order as the layout rows.

You can add as many columns as you want to your layout, always remembering to synchronize the layout with the file.
