## Pet Ornaments 🐈 🐕

After last week’s [Cat Face Ornament](https://cuttle.xyz/@cuttle/Cat-Face-Ornament-BzJstQ9pgrny), so many people requested a dog version!

We’ve been sketching cartoon dog faces all week but haven’t yet hit a design we love. That’s why we’re throwing y’all a [bone](https://cuttle.xyz/@cuttle/Dog-Bone-Ornament-cXwOVGL9s9IY) until we get that figured out 😅

Also remember Cuttle has a [Paw Ornament template](https://cuttle.xyz/@cuttle/Paw-Ornament-irWGANS1uLkF) which is a classic!

Federico’s livestream last week was an introduction to [using](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Gl3vEF3nyY) [_components_](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Gl3vEF3nyY) [in the Cuttle Editor](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Gl3vEF3nyY). Components are a powerful feature but can be tricky to wrap your head around!

Here are a few things you can do with components:

-   Quickly create variations on a design.
-   Make reusable shapes, like holes for mounting screws. If you need to adjust the hole, you change the component and it changes everywhere automatically.
-   Make your own custom shapes that aren’t provided in the Cuttle left sidebar.

In Federico’s livestream yesterday he showed how to [design your own templates that feature multiple names](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SS-mIJkiQ7o).

He creates a component that has a name parameter — for example a name in a heart — then reuses that component throughout a design to place multiple names around a year for an ornament or around a frame for a personalized picture frame.

Federico hosts a live stream on our [Facebook Group](https://www.facebook.com/groups/cuttle) every **Thursday at 1pm PT / 2pm MT / 3pm CT / 4pm ET**. See you there!

## Other Improvements and Fixes 🐞

-   **Mask** modifier: Fixed a bug where filled shapes were not inverted when “invertMask” was selected.
-   **Round Corners** modifier: Fixed a bug where the endpoints of a closed path were merged if they were close together.
-   **Fit Within** modifier is now out of BETA!
-   UI nicety: we now auto-focus the comment text field when adding a new comment to a component or parameter.
-   Fixed a bug where performance could slow down unnecessarily if an expression used `console`.
-   Fixed a bug where Repeat modifiers with zero repetitions would appear like they had an error.
-   Removed hidden handles from component thumbnails.
-   Added Font and RichText to the Scripting Reference.
