Dragknife / generated shapes #377

Closed rapzak closed 4 months ago

rapzak commented 4 months ago

Hi,

If i make a squarre in the tool to generate gcode, it seems the dragknife compensation is not added?

Is this normal or do i need to run some in between or is it a small "bug"

Thank you for your great work

Yes, if you use "Simple shapes" to create a rectangle, drag tool compensation is not supported. But tangential axis. You may create a rectangle in Inkscape and copy/paste it to GRBL-Plotter, this should work.
