I recently did hours of experimental hill-climbing to optimize settings using the engraving tool. Foolishly I did not make a note of my final choices. Had there been an easy/quick...

Feature request: Save hatch fill choices in .svg file

Sometimes I have a pattern which I want to use on different ball sizes or surfaces. Each combination may require rather differing settings for hatch fill. It would be convenient...

At least one online EggBot user has complained of getting raw fingers when repeatedly trying to get the adjustments right on an (Ostrich) EggBot. In my own use of EggBot...

Consider optimizing stepper speed and/or making pen speed constant

5

Eggbot.py uses the customary Euclidean distance measure to calculate the time required for each move, using plot_utils.distance. Because of this, a move of delta x = delta y = n...

Feature request: A pen alignment method might be useful

This is not, by a long shot, a big deal - but I think the stretch algorithm could have just a little bit of refinement added to it. The current...

Extensions / Eggbot contributed / Stretch... does not stretch stars, spirals, or spiro paths

The stretch extension fails to transform spiro paths (neither bezier nor freehand), stars, or spirals. No error message is generated.
