Fill shape

Hello I want to fill the shape.

Is it possible to draw filled shape?

For example If I draw star image as like example

I want the library to make automatically tool path for fill the star.

Hi there,

svg2gcode does not support fills at the moment (see FAQ).

What kind of fill are you looking to do? Definitely open to collaborating on this 🙂

Thanks,
Sameer

Inkscape support it

That seems like a reasonable use case. Is this something you'd be interested in making a pull request for?

Yes, It is. I have idea for it. but the problem is that I can use CPP only.

I will first convert it to cpp code

Cool, this is very exciting. Happy to assist in the translation to Rust process.

Good afternoon, I just recently put together my painting robot. I had a problem generating Gcode because Inkscape doesn't work well with the latest version of MacOS. I found your project and drew my first drawings with it. Thank you very much! Please tell me, is there any way to set the parameters so that the plotter raises the Z-axis and does not leave connection lines?

You can add in some g-code for that as the tool off sequence.

Is this what you were looking for?

Any developments on the fill feature?

We are getting closer to this: #118 adds filled polygon support internally, but I still feel there are some open questions on how that should work in practice.
