📂 Dive deep into the world of organization with this comprehensive guide to Vectric's powerful project management tools! In this lesson, we'll explore the key differences between Sheets, Layers, and Levels, and how they can help you keep your projects tidy and efficient. We'll start by examining Sheets, which allow you to manage separate pieces of material or different material thicknesses within a single project. Next, we'll delve into Layers, a tool for organizing different types of data like vectors, bitmaps, and 3D objects, making it easier to associate them with toolpaths and speed up your workflow. Finally, we'll tackle Levels (also known as the Component Tree), which help you structure and combine 3D components to create complex models. Along the way, we'll share real-world examples, best practices, and pro tips for making the most of these organizational tools. Whether you're a Vectric veteran or just starting out, this lesson will equip you with the knowledge and skills to streamline your projects and take your designs to the next level!
