Pages Window

LightBurn's Pages feature allows you to create multiple pages within the same file. This can help with creating layouts that go across multiple physical sheets of material, or working with multiple related designs that use the same settings.

LightBurn's nesting features can also be set to nest across multiple pages.

Pages Overview¶

The Pages window contains a preview of all the pages in your current project and three buttons: add, duplicate, and delete.

The shapes contained on each page are separate, but cut settings and other file settings are shared across pages.

Accessing the Pages Window¶

The Pages window appears in the top right corner of the window by default, but if it's closed, you can reopen it by going to Window → Pages.

To restore the Pages window and all other windows to their default positions, got to Window → Reset to Default Layout

Pages Options and Settings¶

Page Preview¶

The preview area of the Pages window shows a thumbnail of each page along with the name of that page.

Right-click in this area to open a context menu allowing you to add, duplicate, delete, or rename pages.

Add Page¶

Click this button to add a new blank page to your project.

Duplicate Page¶

Click this button to duplicate the selected page - this creates a new page containing copies of all the objects you have on the selected page.

Delete Page¶

Click this button to delete the selected page.

Rename Page¶

To rename a page, either right-click in the Pages window and choose Rename Page, or double-click on the page in the Pages window to open the Rename Page dialog. Either way, enter the new name and press OK.

Nesting Onto Multiple Pages¶

When using LightBurn's Nesting tools, use the Multisheet option to have LightBurn automatically create additional pages when there are overflow objects beyond the first nesting container.
