2025-12-11 | Version 9.47
This Design Space for Desktop release (v9.47) includes backend improvements and the following features and fixes.
Multi-window connection management
If your machine is already connected to Design Space in one window, and you try to connect your machine in another Design Space window, you’ll see the message “Connection Already in Use.” To switch the connection to this new window, click Continue. Your machine will automatically disconnect from the previous window.
Chatbot bubble placement
We’ve adjusted Chatbot so it will remain in the bottom right corner of the screen and is no longer movable. When needed, it will move up or left to not overlap any buttons.
Layers panel update
With this update, users can select multiple layers in the Layers panel and drag and drop them to the top, bottom, middle, or any other position in the list, with one exception: Users cannot drag and drop layers into a Sticker layer. However, any objects within a Sticker layer may be dragged and dropped outside of the Sticker group.

2025-12-08 | Version 9.46
This Design Space for Desktop release (v9.46) includes backend improvements and the following features and fixes.
Merge Sticker
This new feature allows users to quickly join 2 or more objects into a single sticker (one of the selected objects must already be a sticker). Merge Sticker is available for all Canvas types. After a Merge action has been completed, the stickers will be placed under a “Sticker” parent layer in the Layers panel.
Merge Sticker in Top Toolbar
Because Merge Sticker is accessed in the Shortcut Toolbar, but Shortcut Toolbar is not yet rolled out to all users, we’ve added Merge Sticker to the top toolbar.
Added troubleshooting help to Machine Picker for Connection Failed states
We’ve added a new troubleshooting link which navigates users to help.cricut.com when the machine cannot connect.

Update to Test Cut Screens
Many of the screens in the test cut flow have been updated to provide better instructions and explanations. For example:
Prepare for cut: Insert the sheet under the guides until it reaches the rollers. Then, press the flashing Load/Unload button. The machine will grasp, then measure the sheet.
Click Go: When you’re ready, click Go to begin cutting.
Cutting your decal: The machine takes a few seconds to confirm everything is in place.
Assembly Instructions Update
When assembly instructions appear after completing the cutting step of a project, a new video button will be displayed if an assembly video is available for that project. Clicking the button will open and begin playing the video.
Cricut Access Hub Update
If a member was offered and accepted a Cricut Access promotion, a new banner indicating the status of that promotion now appears in the Cricut Access hub.
Live Preview Update
In project flows that include Live Preview, it will open automatically when an object is placed on the Canvas. It can also be dragged and can be expanded as needed.

Add Heat Guide to New Product Setup
A new selection has been added to the Heat Press selection page of New Product Setup, which opens our Heat Guide website.
Templates Panel Update
With this update, if there are no Template results for a particular search word, we will surface an option to search images instead.
Recommendations Ribbon
With this update, when a new image is added to the Canvas, the “Similar Images” ribbon will display images related to that new image just placed on the Canvas.
Hide the “My Machine” Introduction
This update hides the “My Machine” tip to prevent annoyance caused by too-frequent appearances.
Zoom to fit
This update adds a “zoom to fit” button to the Canvas to provide users a quick one-click way to return to a default, recentered view of their workspace.
Update to ‘Replace Project’ Messaging
This update makes the “replace project” messaging and call-to-action experience consistent across Design Space platforms.
Machine Picker > New Product Setup
With this update, when Product Setup is initiated from the machine picker, the test cut will be skipped; instead, Design Space will return the Canvas or Mat Preview once the setup is complete.

Guided project flow picker on Canvas
With this update, when the New Project button on the Canvas is clicked, a menu of guided project flows will appear. If the Canvas is empty, your new project selection will be loaded. If there is content on the Canvas when the new project is selected, Design Space will ask if you wish to save / replace / cancel.
Cardstock Cutouts guided project flow
Enhance your cardstock project creation with this new guided project flow! Choose a popular cardstock project type from the menu, choose a size, then see your selections represented in a design area on the Canvas. Then, choose images or shapes, insert text, or apply templates from the left panel to start creating your design.
Templates Panel update
The Templates panel displays content that has been optimized for the type of guided project you have selected (i.e., Vinyl Decal, Folded Card, Iron-On T-shirt). With this update, the templates displayed for a particular guided project flow will appear in the panel at the right aspect ratio based on the type and size of project you have selected.
Vinyl Decal Water Bottle
Vinyl Decal - Phone
Folded Cards – Thank You card flow
Project Type Material Selection
Material selection is even easier! Design Space will display Compatible materials based on the project type a user selects (i.e., Vinyl Decal, Iron-On T-Shirt, etc.) — up to 12 materials will be displayed on the “Compatible” tab. To view others, select “Browse All materials.”
Load Type Dialog update
Design Space already filters out load type options based on the machine model one is using and the project’s operations. Along with a fresh new look and clarified descriptions of each load type, the dialog modal has been optimized to show only those options that make sense based on the Project Type that has been chosen. For example, a Folded Card project flow cuts out the entire card base, so Card Mat does not make sense as a Load Type option.
Centered Design Area
With this update, the Design Area in guided project flows will be centered on the Canvas instead of anchored to the top left of the Canvas with grids and rulers on by default.
Operation filtering by Project Type
Just like the updates for Material selection and Load Type options, the Operation menu will now be simplified to show only those Operations that are compatible with the selected Project Type. For example, Vinyl Decal projects only require Cut operations. For Folded Cards & Cardstock Cutouts, Cut and Draw operations are enabled. If a project happens to contain an operation that is not supported by the selected Project Type, a warning message will be displayed.
Vinyl Decal & Iron-On T-Shirt project flows
Folded Cards & Cardstock Cutout project flows
Note: To use Print Then Cut or other Operations not compatible with guided project flows, you can choose “Blank Canvas” from the project picker instead.
Chatbot update – New prompt & Introduction
With this update, new users completing Product Setup will be introduced to Cricut Chatbot on the Let’s keep making page.

2025-09-22 | Version 9.35
This Design Space for Desktop release (v9.35) includes backend improvements and the following features and fixes.
Live Preview Update
This update moves the Live Preview option from the left rail to a panel on the right side of the Canvas. Toggle between Preview and Layers as needed while you create your design!
Images Panel Ribbons Update
This update to the Images panel optimizes image searching based on the project flow you have chosen. The For You, Bookmarked, etc., ribbons will update to show results for your search terms. When “See all” is clicked, users will see more images of that type (for you, bookmarked, etc.) and provide filters for further refining your search. If using the “Blank Canvas” option, users will have the options for “Advanced Search” near the bottom of the panel.
If using one of the guided flows, such as Vinyl Decal or Iron-On T-Shirt, image search is optimized with results that work well for that project type. “Advanced Search” not available through these guided flows; instead, use filters to further refine your search as needed. If you need to use “Advanced Search,” choose “Blank Canvas” instead.
Featured Fonts Label by Project Type
This update now filters featured fonts so the ones you see are optimal for the project flow you have chosen (i.e., Vinyl Decal, Iron-On T-Shirt, etc.). The project type will be displayed above the list of featured fonts as well.
Assembly Instructions Update
With this update, after completing the cutting for a project, assembly instructions will automatically appear if they are available for that project.
