Layers [Resolved]

labaccident

I am trying to create a 12 x 12 grid overlay..the words are in layer 2 and 3...is there a way for me to weld all 3 layers together.  I can weld all the frame together in the default layer.

Select the object you wish to weld and click the weld button

You may have to do a join on the letters with holes before

Weld the frame and just  make sure the words very slightly over lap the frame top and bottom and then weld to frame.

I could weld the frame. When I add the words it creates another layer...I can't select the frame and word to weld it

You've lost me!  Just select everything you can see on the page with your mouse with the left button held down and then weld.  Make sure you weld the frame first so that you can set the words out nicely with them just overlapping the frame by a small amount.  The weld icon is at the bottom of the page.  Or drop the file on me via the inbox or here and either I or someone else will sort it for you.

It is difficult to see in your image
for weld to work objects need to be at least slighlty overlapping




If you are still having issues
attach the MTC file using the  attach file button
then we can see what your working with

Starting in the upper left corner, outside the shapes, drag your mouse to encompass all of the pieces and then click on the Weld icon.
