The Sync Panel helps you consolidate colors within your project to reduce the number of di�erent materials you plan to use, thereby reducing the number of cutting mats needed for a project. When syncing colors, you can change a single layer individually or all layers of a specific color at once.

Tip: Images are separated and placed on the mats based on color; layers with the same color are positioned on the same mats. If you have layers with even slightly di�erent colors, they will cut on di�erent mats. Use the Sync Panel to consolidate variations on a single color.

Changing a single layer color individually
