Gcodetools
Gcodetools is a plug-in for Inkscape. It prepares and converts paths from Inkscape to Gcode, using biarc interpolation.
This article is unfinished. You can help cnc-club expanding it.
Screenshots and photos are needed. Please post them at this thread.

Good afternoon.
I do not know how to write in English, but anyone have any tips on how to do the circle with just two arcs.
Thank you
Ferreira

Maybe just draw a cricle and cut it with another shape and then you will have two arcs?
I am not sure if i understand you correctly.

Is it possible to generate gcode for cutting, and not to go up and down between each cut in depth? This would decrease milling time

mm... there was a hack how to avoid up and down movements... but we have done it yet.

Ok, thanks.
I was just curios, because few days ago i was playing with dxf2gcode and there it is by default.

This is all because of really complicated function that actually generates Gcode... So all Gcode is generated for every layer separately... I think we should include this in future releases...

hello, it was really difficult to register on a russian forum with all the copy/paste to google translate.
and now my question:
how can I prevent gcodetools from adding comments in the code?
path id end and starts pause the pronterface and editing a gcode of 10000 lines manually everytime is really tiring.
this is what I want to eliminate from the output:
Код: Выделить всё
(End cutting path id: path3221)
(Start cutting path id: path3223)
(Change tool to Cylindrical cutter)
thanks in advance as I'm not sure about being able to log back in

Hi!
I thought - that registration form should autodetect your language and if it's not Russian give English form. Anyway there are google-translate links at the top right corner - that lead to Google-translated-pages. Or you can just copy/paste url to google translate to translate entire page and do all the manipulations there.

there was a post-processor to remove all comments, or you can add aditional post processor, something like
regex(r"\(.*\)","");

Hello Everyone.
So where is the download page for the gcode plugin?
I have looked in many places and do not find Links directing to it.
Thanks

1. At the top of the topic click on the Get latest version - there's a zip file with latest version, or if you want latest dev version you can get it at github
https://github.com/cnc-club/gcodetools (find Download ZIP button at the right of the page.)

В 0.91 включили косячную версию - точно проблемы с dxf-points и ещё чем-то, вроде. Как будем действовать?

Hi Nick and all the other cnc friends
I have a few questions. First of all i want to point that all i need is a 2D gcode. When I convert a 30cm x 10cm rectangle it gives me these codes ( i dont add the other unneccesary codes above and below)
Код: Выделить всё
G00 Z 0.0000
G00 X 0.0176 Y 2.8046
G01 Z 0.0000 F 100.0000(Penetrate)
G01 X 8.4492 Y 2.8046 Z 0.0000 F 400.0000
G01 X 8.4492 Y 0.0176 Z 0.0000
G01 X 0.0176 Y 0.0176 Z 0.0000
G01 X 0.0176 Y 2.8046 Z 0.0000
G00 Z 0.0000
as you can see the X gcode isn't exatcly 10cm it's 8.4492, same problem on Y codes I tried circles and other vectorel drawings i had all of them is crippled after conversion. how can i solve this problem.
Thanks

If so - then Go to File - Inkscape preferenses - Tool - and set Geometric bbox.
