Group engrave an array of bitmaps

Does anyone know if there is an option in Lasercad that allows it to group a series of bitmaps so that it engraves from one to the other to the other before moving to the next line of the engrave.

At the moment it will complete the first bitmap image and then move on to the next. This is inefficient as there is overshoot due to acceleration and deceleration for each bitmap. If they were grouped together there would only be acceleration and deceleration at each end of an array of bitmapss.

Does this make sense? Have I missed a setting for this in the software?

Thanks.

This is not a real fix, but what I do is I arrange my pictures in Corel Draw and export it as a single PNG at the exact size/resolution I am wanting to work with.
