Hello Michael and everyone,
When dealing with 2D CAD in the context of physical plotters (lasercutter/vinyl cutter) I often want to make sure that a design is exported in the most simple, barebones way possible so that there are no surprises when interfacing with the software of the machine. For instance some of them may not be able to properly process a parametric circle or an interpolated curve.
While exporting to DXF is a good bruteforce way of doing things, it still leaves some parametric components (circles in particular). I just had the case recently with a vynil cutter software not processing a round cut that I had to eventually redraw as a polygon.
Is there a way to do such conversion directly in MOI ? A curve rebuild of sorts but without any interpolation handles, just segments. Like so (third picture) :
Thanks !
