Thank you bmsaus4ax! That did the trick.

Thanks, but that did nothing of value.

I'm starting with a Draft:Shapestring to create an engraving path. Upon selecting the shapestring and creating a new job, I receive the following: 09:47:01 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/tmp/.mount_FreeCAxEJiPX/usr/Mod/Path/Path/Main/Job.py", line 552, in onChanged processor = P...

I'm getting my head around Assembly 4, certainly a step forward. Now I have a project that I'm ready to mill, but find only a 2D object, "Model" when I create a new path job. How do I produce a tool path without resorting to producing a separate file with the 3D model in it?

@chrisb: Thank you! Went from an hour or more to a few seconds!

I'm having the same problem; frustratingly slow. @chrisb: how do you invoke that argument?

Disclaimer: I'm no machinist. I've been using adaptive tool paths for milling aluminum for quite a while with generally good results. I have, however, noticed that tools tend to break at the end of a profiling operation and I have not been able to diagnose the issue. I've tried different feed rates,...

Thank you both for the replies. Installing the dxf library did the trick. I'm off to cut parts!

Thanks for the reply. I'll update OCC.

Attached is what I see upon opening the file you provided. Not sure what's up.

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. When exporting the attached file as a dxf for laser cutting, it creates a file appearing to have four copies of every entity. After tediously removing the seemingly duplicate entities, I am unable to produce complete polylines, which I presume means the entities a...
