Make The Cut Software - Video Tutorial (Break, Split, & Layer)
Alright so in the Make the Cut Software there are 3 features that may cause confusion on when to use them and what they do. Those three features are Split, Layer, and Break.
BREAK
When you break a shape, every inner shape becomes its own entity allowing you to move, size, remove or reuse any part of a shape you want.
LAYER
When you layer a shape, you end up with two separate entities: the background and the foreground. This is useful if you want to take a single shape and turn it into two separate colors giving the shape more depth. You can break, layer and split the resulting layers.
SPLIT
When you split a shape, every shape that isn't inside another shape becomes its own entity. This is useful when you want to split apart text. You can break, layer and split the resulting entities.
