Option to change page orientation to landscape #6

Open cumarin opened 2 years ago

cumarin commented 2 years ago

Please add an option to change page orientation to landscape. Version 2.0.0.beta0 always cuts in portrait mode.

Timmmm commented 2 years ago

Sounds like a nice idea. To be clear, do you mean that you just want the option to rotate a portrait SVG by 90 degrees? IIRC if you open a landscape SVG it should be shown in landscape.

The preview of illustrations in landscape format is fine, but after clicking the 'Cut' icon the landscape format is not detected. So I have to rotate all landscape format files in Inkscape to portrait format.

(Craft ROBO CC330-20, 2.0.0.beta0)

Ah ok that sounds like a bug. Can you post an example file and ideally screenshots/errors etc?

Ah so you mean you have a landscape file and you'd like to have an option to rotate it 90 degrees so it's actually cut portrait (and thus fits in the plotter which can only really cut portrait)?

The "Vinyl Cutter" thing may be a bit misleading - it is just stretched to the width of the drawing. Maybe I should sort of fade it out to the right or something.
