Hello All! Well, lot’s has been happening with the Scan N Cut Canvas cloud based design suite over the last couple of month’s so I thought that I would take a few minutes to record a quick overview video on what’s new and updated.
Hope you enjoyed that.
It certainly seems improved, doesn’t it?
Anyway, thanks for watching and I will catch you all again soon.

GENTLEMAN CRAFTER 
Thanks for the Guide to Canvas. I coped well with Version 1 but the new version confused me. I found it daunting. Could do with more guidance with something like a laser spot to show where you are clicking. Things may be obvious to others but it takes time for me till the penny drops! Apparently there is more stuff on Youtube but I’ve found nothing helpful yet.

Will bear this in mind for future videos.

There is no longer a need to right click. Just click on the download button, then from the two options click on the left hand one.

Hi John. What are the Differances between the New CM300 and the CM600. What does the Extra USB Port Allow you to do. Also is the Scanner better on the CM300. When we Purchased our Scan N Cut Machines last year we were told there deffinately would not be any Updates or Modifactions that we could not be able to obtain through Downloads.on the CM600. So why can we not do so.

Hi Edna, I am afraid that I have not yet researched all of this information and as I am no longer at Create and Craft TV I am not so up to date with this at the moment. I believe that there is information across the internet now about the differences in the machines and what new features have been added/upgraded.
I am under the impression that some of the new functionality will be made available to existing users however I can’t confirm that for sure.
Do hope you find out what you need to know though.
Regards.

Hi John, thank you for all the lovely files for the scan n cut. I have Windows Vista, how can I get Scan N Cut Canvas. It says you need explorer 10 and Vista won’t load it. I don’t really want to change from Vista unless I really have to.

It will need a modern browser. Works fine in safari, chrome and those other browsers.
Probably best to upgrade sometime soon.

Thanks John for the video, it really helped, I’m a fiddler and was just messing my way through rather than looking for written information.
I’ve uncovered a problem, in the properties box, it insists on reverting to a 0.0,0.25, 0.5 or 0.75 of an inch, it won’t accept the previously possible 100th of an inch to set the size. it’s a shame they’ve lost a good feature.
LikeLike
100th of an inch?! Wow, you were being really precise with your measurements – I’m not even sure what 1/100th of an inch would be as it would be so minuscule. 1/4 is small. A quarter of a quarter would be 1/16 so that’s almost sliver-like – to get down as far as 1/100th of an inch … *whistles*!
Have you tried manually typing the number in?

John, thanks so much for the video. Very interesting and helpful but I cannot find where to download the version 2.0.0 despite going to the Brother Solutions Centre. You say it has been released so am I being dim? DianaR

This is not a download for the machine, it’s an update for the online software called Canvas. No need to update the machine for that.

Thanks John. As usual I got carried away and didn’t take in the fact that it was Canvas you were talking about. I will now go and watch your video again. Duh!

Hi John
Do you know if the new version of the scan n cut will be available in the UK. I have been holding off buying the machine as from what I read the scanner had trouble seeing light colours but the new machine will have that function. Thank you Michelle x
