Post Move vector problem

When I open an svg og use MOVE VECTOR to place it, nothing happens when I click. I've tried using resize vector. Running the latest version of windows 64, precompiled.

Give me a little more context please. You click the "load vector" button, and literally nothing happens? Does the button flash?

Load vector works. I have to click move vector before I can see it, and thats ok, but when moving I can't click to place it, like with pngs etc. It is the same on windows 64 and linux 32

Ok, that is odd. Do you have the "frame" defined?

The frame is a kind of clipping mask, and the vector will only show up inside it. The corners of the frame are the red crop marks.

Select area
"set frame to area"

Try to place your vector inside the area.

That's the only thing I can think of!

Frame as in pictureframe?

It is set as
controller.pictureframe.position.y=1632
controller.pictureframe.position.x=1632

Sorry I guess I wasn't clear, it was meant as an instruction: select an area, then click "set frame to area" to set the frame. Your lines will show up when the vector is placed inside the frame.

Ah, yes that worked, thanks!

I thought that portion of the controller was limited to pngs/jpgs. Is that info part of the instructable (it should be).
