Issue first reported in the Inkscape bug tracker (https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcodetools/+bug/1666824).
For your information Inkscape 0.92 uses Gcodetools v1.7.

Trying to work with INKSCAPE 0.92 drawings and conversion to Gcode having problems

  1. While drawing in node mode in outline mode the display goes IN and OUT if you nug page up/down or to the side display comes back temporarily.

  2. Extensions/gcodetools/orientation points menu is so big the apply button is not visible and you can not get to it. Move hits top of page minimize grayed out

  3. Also after you path to Gcode your drawing changes to arrows and you get default tool page in green and you can edit text but after you change tool diameter what do you do next? discovered how to take the green out but not how to get just drawing back. or how to save default tool page.

  4. Gcode add on message to say "file generated" plus your good notes. operating system just calls it a file. windows 10 does not show extensions.

  5. Load 3D clover "org to path""path trace bitmap" edit line drawing then "Extensions/Gcodetools/path to Gcode" file generated but there is NO Image or TOOL PATH in UCCNC just Gcode and when program M2 is reached everything stops. HOW DO I GENERATE A TOOL PATH?
