• Are you looking for a coupon code to buy my software? You can get one from lots of 3rd party sites but they won't work. My software never goes on sale and has never been discounted. The only coupon codes that are given is when I give a club presentation and I offer a discount to the attendees. Other than that, everyone pays the same price.

Species Pallette

Is it possible to have 12 Species in a palette, or is the 10 species a hard rule?
 
In SP the limit is 10 species in a palette. In general using more than 10 species would be rare in segmenting.
Word of caution: While the palette can contain up to 10 species, you will find the summary view does not handle more than 5.
Wood Turner Pro you can use as many species as you like. The same problem will occur in printing the summary view.

" I received an email from Lloyd on why the limit of 5 species for the printing summary. I agree with Lloyd in that is was a good compromise. Besides as he stated the species for segments show up correctly in the ring and vessel view.

" I simply ran out of real estate to print more than five species without having to use a smaller font. I already use narrow fonts and have used abbreviations. Limiting the summary to five species with a larger font is far more important to everybody than more than five segments which is rarely done and would make the Summary harder to read.

You have to draw lines somewhere. I could have gone to six which would have been fine until someone wanted to use seven. Fortunately, you can use as many species as you want in Woodturner PRO and it will display correctly as both a vessel and a ring view so I believe that’s as good as is necessary. ""
 
Thanks, I will keep on trying to figure a way to do a thin wall , 24 closed segment of my balloon. It has 12 colors in a left spiral and that is my challenge. I will figure this out eventually... Appreciate prompt responses!

If you have WTP use it. You can do as many species as you want.

In SP in the bowl setting window is where you can set the wall width.
