Re-Ordering Cuts in SheetCam
I've got a 4x8 sheet of script words that I put together in InkScape, so one file has about 15 separate words in it. When I bring it into SheetCam and create the plasma operation, it's going around and cutting all of the inside cuts on all of the words before coming back to do the outside cuts for each word. I know how to move start points, but is there a way to change the sequence of them so I can cut all the inside cuts in a word and then cut the outside of that word before moving on to the inside cuts of the next word?

Yes. Click on edit start points (the +S symbol). Then right click on the start point you want to change and then select "quick cut sequence". When you are done, right click on a start point and choose "end sequence".
Once you play with a bit it's pretty self intuitive so you'll figure it out.

Found it. "All inside first" was checked on the second tab of the plasma cutting operation. Switching it to "keep parts together" did the trick.
