Notes for those upgrading from v1 to v2 of T3RRA Cutta
Users moving from v1 to v2 should find the experience fairly painless. The popular wizard based workflow remains the same, as do most of the visual elements, albeit with updated iconography.
While there are more design capabilities present, the basic usage remains the same. Perhaps the greatest conceptual change is the new ability to mix and match design types within separate regions of a field, and to perform designs on top of existing designs. This will take some adjusting to. The best advice when beginning is to take careful note of the surface you are applying any design to: elevation or design.
Another large adjustment is the addition of the ‘As-applied’ functionality. Please carefully read the Understanding “As-applied” section in this manual. If not understood fully this capability could confuse and frustrate. Remember that you can always turn off this capability to return to the traditional mode of use.
We recommend that all users moving from v1 to v2 download and peruse the T3C v1 to v2 Migration Document before first use of the new system.
Backwards compatibility
We have worked to ensure that v2 is as compatible as possible with v1. This is not 100% possible as v2 has layers that are not present in v1 and hence cannot be loaded by v1. However, in the main, files created in v1 will be able to be opened in v2 and vice versa. This should ensure that machines running v1 will be able to work alongside machines running v2 in the same field using the same control file.
