Hello,
i dont own a drawing robot yet but would like to edit some of the processed photos. I loaded a picture, made a crosshatch of it and then tried to save it as svg or dxf. unfortunately when i try to open the files in inkscape, they are completely empty :/ do i have to have a robot to be able to access these? or am i just doing something wrong?
Thanks alot
Andreas

The original must be deleted, only the svg should remain. Otherwise it does not work.
Testing this myself, I found a bug in DXF file exporting. The code looks for lines that match the pen up and pen down commands so that it can ignore pen up moves (non-drawing). it was incorrectly missing all up and down commands because the up and down lines had a return (\n) on the end. This has been fixed in commit c44e6434ff15220d66c07937873d112e22000033. It is available immediately to testers and developers. The rest of the world will get it when I make an official update.
When will this next official update be available in the standard download?
Right now! 🙂
