Question from someone who’s never owned a vinyl cutter

I just got a used cameo 3. I am a stained glass artist and want to cut out my patterns on vinyl. Sorry this is super broad, but I’ve never had a machine like this before. Can someone give a rundown of how to use this machine?

I have a drawing saved as a png. I can upload it to the studio and trace it. I see all the nodes. However, I can’t select individual pattern pieces and move them around. That is a necessary feature for me as some patterns are larger than 12 inches. How do I do this?

Also, is there a way to adjust the width of the cuts? For example can I make it so all the cuts are 1mm apart? Or do I need to do this in a different software?

Finally, how do I import svg files? It only lets me import pngs.

Thanks!
