Upgrading from T3RRA Cutta V1 to V2

Users movingTransitioning from v1T3RRA Cutta V1 to v2T3RRA Cutta V2 has been designed to be as straightforward as possible. The familiar wizard-based workflow has been retained, along with the core operating principles used throughout V1. While the user interface has been refreshed, existing users should find the experience fairly painless. The popular wizard basedoverall workflow remainsfamiliar.

We strongly recommend reading the Understanding As-Applied section of this manual before using the feature. Understanding how As-Applied surfaces interact with existing designs will help avoid confusion and ensure predictable design behaviour.

If preferred, As-Applied functionality can be disabled, allowing operation in a manner similar to previous versions.

Migration Guide

Users upgrading from T3RRA Cutta V1 are encouraged to review the T3RRA Cutta V1 to V2 Migration Guide before beginning work. The guide highlights the key workflow changes and explains how familiar V1 concepts have evolved in V2.

File Compatibility

T3RRA Cutta V2 has been designed to maintain compatibility with T3RRA Cutta V1 wherever practical.

    Backwards compatibility

    We have worked to ensure that v2 is as compatible as possible with v1. This is not 100% possible as v2 has layerscapabilities that are not presentsupported inby v1V1, andsome henceprojects cannotmay not be loadedfully bycompatible v1.
