My Omtech 50 W fiber will not frame. It used to. Still cuts fine but need to be able to position material. I feel this is in my settings. Can someone share their settings so I can try and get this working. Thanks

      Your previous settings are likely intact in an lbprefs file.
LightBurn saves the last 50 copies and it’s been a very useful feature for recovery.
In Lightburn click File, click Preferences, click Import Prefs.
My instance of LightBurn opens ‘My Documents’ on my PC.

        : The Prefs files should be there - but they aren’t there for me. I had to do some digging. In LightBurn, click File, click Preferences, click Open Prefs Folder.

        : I had to explore a little bit to get the Prefs files to come up. For me, they are here. If you don’t find it after looking around for a bit, do a brute-force search for lbprefs. I’m confident these files will be there. After this directory is known, return to the Import Prefs and navigate that tool to the directory where these files are and import one with a date, from when your galvo was working as expected and framing properly. Please report back to confirm that this worked or if something goes wrong.
