![]() Recent versions of the allow you to add paths to this selection or start from scratch and select each path to be edited by shift clicking but at the end none of the nodes are highlighted and you must select all using ctrl-a (as in the case being discussed here ) or draw a marquee with the node tool (note that while drawing the marquee rectangle you can draw over paths and nodes that were not selected before and their nodes will not be selected!) or shift click each node. You can use the to select several paths and hand them off to the for editing. There is a subtle and very well designed interaction of the and the. Anyway, if you get that error message, just wait a few more minutes, and you should be able to post as expectedĪs Brynn points out, the nodes are not selected until the selects them. I'm not sure what the amount of time is, between messages, but I think it's like 1 to 3 minutes. But I do sometimes get an error that says something like 'you're not allowed to post again so soon'. (again assuming it's an SVG and that I understand what you want to do, lol)Ģnd PS - You may post as many messages per day as you wish (as long as they aren't spam, lol). Now seeing your image, I'm thinking the Flatten Beziers extension that I mentioned earlier, might be the answer. (It can be converted in Inkscape, if necessary, and maybe you've already done that? Anyway, just to be sure.) But it would need to be in SVG format for editing in Inkscape. ![]() I see the file you uploaded is a JPG, and I understand that you may have converted, or used a converted copy to upload (or something like that). But before I start with suggestions, I just want to make sure that the image is in SVG format. I might be having a slightly different interpretation. But apparently CNC can apply to different technologies, so even having the definition, I couldn't guess your application. ![]() I did look up CNC machine, since I wasn't sure. If this doesn't answer your question, maybe you could show us a screenshot of the original paths. They are polygons by definition, but still paths. But in either case, the results are still paths. If the paths have curves, and you want to make them straight, you could use either a) the Flatten Beziers extension, which with a Flatness value of 60.0 will turn an ellipse into a diamond shape, or b) the Straighten Segments extension, which with a Percent value of 100.0 will do the same thing. Ok, there are a couple of extensions that might be helpful, depending on your situation. But not the other way around, to my knowledge. Inkscape commonly can take its rectangles, ellipses, stars, polygons, and spirals, and convert them to paths. Although I'm not entirely sure what you mean.
