Kev is right, if you have it set to cut then engrave in the colors, it's going to engrave first and then cut. You can rearrange the colors all you want, it's not going to change it. This question was brought up on FB a couple weeks ago and I thought the colors mattered as well. Then someone said Trotec said it wouldn't cut and then engrave. I thought that was crazy talk because I've moved colors around all the time. Then I tried it. Nope, not happening. I suspect that's what happens on all lasers. Just because you can move the colors on the screen, doesn't mean it works in real life. Unless you actually try it, you might not be aware of what it really does.
