Annoying drawing error messages - how to debug?

Post by Torleif Jensen »

Hi.

I'm very often getting annoying error messages like:

"Some paths were not generated correctly. There could be a problem with
the drawing."

Is there a way to figure out why Sheetcam reports this? Checking the
drawing manually can be rather time consuming ant typically I don't find
anything.

Best regards, Torleif.

Hi Torleif,

That normally indicates that something has gone wrong with the path
generation. It happens when you offset a closed contour but the end
result is an open path. This should not happen. In most cases if the cut
paths look good it will cut fine.

I have trouble with hidden open paths too. Sometimes it is a tiny detail in a large nest and it can be difficult to track down. Is their a way to highlight the source of the open path?

Are you getting the same warning or are tehse just ordinary open paths? You can show open paths by selecting View->show path ends. All open paths will have white dots at each end.

Ordinary open paths I'd say. I will give your suggestion a go.
