So if you can explain the 'path' which a single file takes, step by step, either from the point when you finish drawing it and save the file, or from the point when you download it to the point where the problem occurs, we can hopefully find the problem.Īlso, please share one of the files with us - the SVG file, and if you're downloading a different format, please share that one too. But I'm not sure if that solution would apply in your case. We might have a solution for that, if it can't be avoided. In some file conversions, we do see that paths have somehow been broken up into a multitude of short, 2-node paths. Is this 'loading message' some kind of error message? Does it just say it's taking too long, or something else? Also, when you 'check' the files, what are you checking them for? Are you looking for something, making sure the files are ok? Or it is some kind of editing?Ĭan you tell us specifically the steps you're taking? Something about your explanation gives me the idea you're using a script, or possibly commandline for some of this.Īre these files which you've downloaded from somewhere? Or did you draw them yourself? Or maybe both? Is SVG to DXF the only format conversion in this process? I appreciate your diligent troubleshooting! Let me make sure I understand the problem. I hope someone has a clue what is going on. I've spent days searching and seems even Google can't find this problem, let alone the solution, but did manage to get me here where I can't find it either. That does not explain the broken lines of the files in Inkscape so I guess this is originating there but like I said, the files are fine in Cricut (free version). I see no option to go back to a prior version. I think, but am not sure, that I saw an auto-update in SB right before this happened. 64-bit operating system, 8GB Ram, and 2 antivirus programs. I have no problems with the SVG, EPS, or PNG files. I tried that and got a blank screen in SB (no loading message). I saw that some of the others' DXF files were Symbols (in the status bar). I've saved as Grouped, Ungrouped, and Union. I've tested a very simple (3 shapes converted to paths) file. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Inkscape. I've uninstalled and reinstalled SB twice and deleted a file their site says to delete when getting the loading message. There are no gradient or patterns in the designs. When I check the DXF in Inkscape it is broken into very small (2 node) pieces.

There are no problems with my DXF files in Cricut. When I convert my files using an online SVG to DXF service, they are fine in SB. Other files (not ones I created) do not have this problem. Now it can take up to 90 seconds for a file to load and once it does, it has mangled nodes - twists and clumps.Īll the files I previous checked have this problem now. All was well until I got a 'loading' message in SB. As I went, I checked each file (over 50) in Silhouette Basic (SB). I began creating cut files in Inkscape (92.3) (Windows 10) for my shop. Sorry my 1st post is a cry for help, but I'm at my wits end. The reduction in size seems consistent across the whole model because the notches all snap fit nicely (still surprised at the kerf success!!)).Hi all.

I looked around the forums for such a discussion and there was some dpi and accuracy discussion, but that did not seem quite right, although I am not that familiar with all the details of either of the apps so I could be wrong. It came out of the glow forge at about 113 mm.

It went into inkscape (where i translated it into inches) and measured 4.79ish inches. For example, the length of my object in fusion was 120mm. When I place the design into the GFUI and cut the pieces the whole design was smaller.

The sketches I laid out in Fusion 360 came into inkscape with all the right dimension. (I assure you, it will be one special Sharpie Holder when it is done!) I got the kerf part (Or at least I think I do - believe it or not) by making the adjustments that wrote in her tutorial. I decided to try and start a project in fusion then adjust for kerf in inkscape just to get a feel how things work. My focus has been designing in Fusion 360 and inkscape. You know, - working on things like kerf and all that. I have been busy forging away since FiendFyre arrived a few weeks ago.
