Thank you for your reply, Well, we can't change the machine setting. The weird thing is that when I have cusp nodes, I can save it with 0.01mm with no problem, But when I have smooth nodes, here the problem happens. Another observation that this happens on my laptop. In the Fab Lab where I go we did...

Hi again :D , I have a problem saving files as pdf when the path has smooth nodes and it's stroke width is 0.01mm. I need to have the stroke style width 0.01mm to be able to cut it with laser or vinyl cutter. When I open the pdf file it's empty and when I open it again with inkscape I find nothing. ...

Hi again

I am having a problem in saving my files as dxf. I am using this to cut my designs with laser cutter.

This is my design


And this is what happens when I save it as dxf

I found the answer here http://www.shapeoko.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=5506 Essentially, the line in "inch_dxf_outlines.py" in the extensions folder, h = inkex.unittouu(self.document.getroot().xpath('@height',namespaces=inkex.NSS)[0]) should read h = self.unittouu(self.document.getr...

Hi, I am trying to save my file with Big Blue Saw DXF output But I get this message error1.PNG traceback (most recent call last): File "inch_dxf_outlines.py", line 200, in <module> e.affect() File "C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\extensions\inkex.py", line 268, in affect self.eff...

Thanks to both of u

yes object to path didn't work. It worked when I deleted the parent object.

Thanks again.

Hi, I am trying to create a design like the one in the image to cut it with laser cutter. so what I did is the following 1. I drew a path using bezier curve (step 1 in the image) 2. created a tiled clones ( 1 row 8 columns, shift x =-100 , and rotation = 45) (step 2) earring design.jpg now when I cl...

Thanks to both of you. This was so helpful.

Thank you.

Thanks You can set markers to display nodes all the time. How do I do this ? When I set object to marker the object disappear. it can get challenging how to implement compass and ruler constructions with inkscape. Can you show the image you want to draw in the end? It seems so. I am following a tuto...

Thank your for your quick reply. You have to have the object selected and the node tool engaged, to be able to see the nodes. yes, but now when I select the bezier curve tool, the node tool becomes deselected so the nodes disspear. Can't I have the nodes visible while using the bezier curve ? It sou...

Hi,

I am new to inkscape.

When I select the edit path by nodes, the nodes are visible and when I deselect it the nodes disappear. Is there a way to keep the nodes always visible (like the attached image). It's easier when snapping to see what I am snapping to.

Thank you.
