• Having problems with video with Segment PRO on a new PC? You could be experiencing one (or both) of two problems. First, if you have an ultra high-resolution screen, the recommended settings might be higher than 1920 x 1080 with a scale factor of more than 100% and the user interfaces for all software written in c# will NOT be correct. Simply change the resolution and scaling to 1920 x 1080 and scale to 100%. Second, if you have a wonky Bowl View, you have an Intel Iris graphics solution and there are serious problems with it. Solution - go to the Drivers page at Intel's website and install their latest driver for your computer. This will fix it. Link: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download-center/home.html

I have been turning for about two years, I have turned several segmented bowls and have fell in love with it. I was given Lloyds software as a birthday gift. I hope to be able to use it to create new designs.

Welcome to WTP.
The software will be a great tool to create new designs.

If you haven't discovered already.
- WTP gives you full control of each ring.
- SP us rules based and limits what you can change. (the paint application is great for designs)

Ask questions and share experiences. There are a lot of great turners here.

I have been watching the tutorial's , several times, but i cant seem to grasp how to control how many rings or their placement. Im sure it is all there if I could get my brain to recognize it.

- Which software? I suspect you are talking about SP.

SP is very automated. for a basic bowl (no featured ring) the numbers of rings would be controlled by height of the bowl and the height of the rings.

WTP you add each ring yourself.
