Maybe I did not explain it good.

but something like this > https://inkscape-manuals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tracing-an-image.html
scroll to the fist pic.

from a line stroke to generate the centerline.

Tnx!

Not exactly that you want but...

Hi Matadem,

re:
> If I have certain shapes...is there a script or can Moi generate a middle(centerline) from the shape?

Not really from the kind of noisy inputs that you have there.

If you have 2 cleanly drawn curves you can use the morph script that Pilou shows to make an average between them but I don't expect it to work well for your sort of more "data processing" type input.

The overall focus of MOI is on drawing stuff, it is not focused on processing noisy scanned data. It's not the right tool for this particular kind of job.

Are you V-Carve machining? If so CamBam might be what you need, along with the V-Engrave plugin.
Both are free for the first forty trial sessions, so it's easy to try out.
I wouldn't use the curves you supplied though, because they are way too messy.

I am just looking at some options...because for all my work it starts and or go thru Moi at a certain point.

If you are talking V-carving...I use Vectric Vcarve and the new update v12 which is on my list to buy...there is new feature called sketch carving which will save you hours.

Tnx!
