Tabs in makercam

Ok, I am working on another cut. I told makercam to put tabs in. But while watching Maslow cut, I am seeing no signs of the tabs be left in. I left it be the default, 5" apart and. 25 x. 25 I did not see a visual representation of them. And in watching now… They were not present in the gcode. [20170820_172531]

Setup instructions don't include "tabs" to hold pieces

I’m in the middle of cutting out the final frame and have noticed a big source of my problems are that pieces are being cut out completely and the holes they leave are causing the temporary sled to jump and jerk. I remember some time back seeing a way to add “tabs” (that is small gaps in the cut lines that would hold the piece in place so that they don’t fall off the cutting surface) in MakerCam.com. Is there any way to add instructions on how to create those to the instruction manual? I think …

Thank you
