Older version needed

[uwefrank]

The actual version does not run under Inkscape 0.92. I must however keep that beacuse of another extension I need. Would it be possible to provide also an previous version of the extension. Besides that it is really good.

[Neon22]

what is the other extension that needs updating. Maybe I can fix that one.

Hi Neon22, pretty quick reply! Thanks. the other extension is the JTech Photonics gcode generator. It works only well under 0.92. When I use the new version of it (beta) under 1.01 it generates gcode that tries to drive my 3D printer/cutter head over the limits of the frame. There is some scaling issue. I already thought about writing a postprocessor. As far as I coudl find out it upscales the coordinates by a factor of 3.5 or so. Maybe a inch/centimeter issue? I looked already through the code but it is really a big chunk of code.

So I thought it would be the easiest to run a previous version of the jigsaw extension until the JTech guys have fixed the code. It is already reported as a bug.

Besides that I want to say that this is a great extension. Like it a lot.

This page indicates there is a beta for V1.0

• https://jtechphotonics.com/?page_id=1980
• Have you tried that ? The scaling will be the issue but almost impossible to fix as a postprocess on the Gcode.

Please let me know how you get on ?

[Neon22]

Oops yes I see that. sorry not concentrating :( I'll check it. Actually newer version 2.0 here: https://github.com/JTechPhotonics/J-Tech-Photonics-Laser-Tool/releases/tag/v2.0-beta.2

[uwefrank]

Yes, I tried that too. No change. There's a fundamental bug in.

Looked through the code. I added a note on the Jumbo github issue. It looks to me like the some units are being assumed. I don't have time to try to fix the code just at this time and the only way I could test it would be to have a result that was correct to compare to.

So I'd suggest you try creating a simple shape with a new doc initialised in mm or inches, or pixels and submit the svg file that fails as well as any that work as examples to the jumbo issue:

[uwefrank]

Ok. Thanks for caring. addtl comment: If a shape is created in Inkscape it works fine in both versions. But if it is pasted from an external source it does not work. Creates sometimes even negative y coordinates in 1.01.

[Neon22]

OK that's super useful news, alas link does not resolve. svg is text and probably not too large you could cut and paste it in here.

[Neon22]

OK. They think the bug is fixed. please let me know if its working in latest Inkscape.

@uwefrank did they update and did it work for you. Can we close this issue ?

[uwefrank]

Hi Neon22, yes, please close down the issue. Thanks.
