I have been experimenting with the ruler module particularly for designing clock faces. I have noticed that when I bring the DXF file into Aspire, there is an open vector near the top that is nearly impossible to see because it's a point. It probably shouldn't be there so I wanted to bring it to your attention.
Thank you for adding this very useful feature! It will really help laying out dials for V-Carving.

DXF Output from Ruler Module
Re: DXF Output from Ruler Module
Thanks Mark:
Ill take a look for it, though it may depend on what ruler is being made. Ill see what i can see..

Re: DXF Output from Ruler Module
Hi MArk:
Odd, vectric doesnt show any open chains or points in that file. Nor does auggie if I import it.
Those are the only two dxf programs I use, but Ill dig into the data to see if there a lost point there somewhere..

Re: DXF Output from Ruler Module
That's weird. Here's how I found it... In V-Carve Pro or Aspire, create a new file 12" x 12" datum point in center. Import the DXF file. Deselect everything then go to the tool path menu, choose V-Carve and use the "Selector" to find open vectors on all layers. It finds one, the tiny one below the number 12. No problem really because I can simply delete it before generating a tool path.

Hi Mark:
Interesting, I can select it, but damned if I can see it..
Ill look for why. Thx for the note..
