Thanks for posting all that Dave. I don't do much inlay work using that technique, but occasionally it will come in handy.

I have been using 4.5 pretty much forever. Never upgraded. A recent machine rebuild resulted in my supposedly having to upgrade to solve an issue. Well, that did not turn out to be the case. But, here I am, on V12. I like the fresh look. I like the way the clipart selection looks and operates. The o...

I highly doubt it is the machine or the controller. This sounds like something is interfering with the computer during sending of the program. I am not sure if your control is being spoon fed the program from the computer. On both of my grbl machines that is the case, so if ANYTHING interferes with ...

Is this intentional or a bug? .....

Neither.

I decided not to make a candle holder after all...I figured a walking cane would be more useful in the near future...it's by no means perfect, but I'm pleased.

Perfect is overrated.

Nice work.

These are from my SW Pro Series, pretty darn sure it is Officer size (but I think it is actually called Commander, could be wrong about that)

Just tried it on my laptop, CND (could not duplicate).

Just thinking it may have to do with how you have your display settings in windows configured.

Back in the day when I was writing software I did not have any bugs, just anomalies. I used that term for a reason. Even though I was the person who wrote the software it was possible that the software was doing exactly what I told it to do, but not what I had intended. The term BUG has an interesti...

I consider this a fatal bug..

What is fatal is running a kludged together system.

I wish people would stop creating posts with BUG in the title. After being here for about 17 years now, the percentage of posts claiming BUG that actually were a bug is really low. Also, most of the folks gleefully typing BUG in a post title are far from qualified to determine if an issue they are h...

I had the same problem, take a look at this thread. . . I am not sure I remember exactly how I did it. . . but it works, LOL

...... It works best with 3d models or good pictures of 3d models. It can work with more general photographs, but it's not meant for that and the results may be less than appealing. It does a great job with 3d models, though. ..... I am gonna disagree with you a bit here. Sort of depends on what ty...

Did you try drawing a circle around what you want to carve, then clicking "Selected Vector(s)" under Machining Limit Boundary in the Sketchcarve dialog? That seemed to work for me. I am working with a bitmap, the Selected Vector does not work with that. If I try it the software posts a message that...

Pretty incredible tool. Gave it a try and it seemed to work well except it insists on carving the boundary of the image itself. Screenshot 2024-04-10 121301.png Played around and could not seem to find a solution. Tried a few different file formats, etc. Hopefully I am missing something cause it is ...

....... I see now that each individual path must be saved, not an exported project output. ...... That is sort of not the case. If you have multiple tool paths that use the same tool they can be combined into one output file for the machine. Depending on the post, it is also possible on some machin...
