I've simplified a file down to a simple box with holes. I have it orientated on the XY axis I select the Pad and then go to File, Export, Give it a name, and Ok the preferences and it converts a file. I am using the non legacy converter for this.
I load he file in LibreCAD to take a look. At first glance everything looks great.
However I can select each segment of the polygon and then move it. This GIF shows that process
I can repeat those steps 2 more times before I get to the original segments.
Additionally I find that after I delete all the large segments, I have missed some very small ones that are still duplicated. If they try to run this file in their Plasma table, the torch path ends up duplicating cuts and trying to cut places that already have been cut. Additionally, it treats the insides and outsides of circles differently so they are cut to wide. Needless to say it makes it useless unless I go in and manually clean up the file.
One or two files is manageable. Cleaning up 100s is not.
I can export the file using the Legacy export and I get something different. Instead of each segment being independent, the whole boundary, including the inclusion circles. act as one. If you click anywhere on the boundary, the whole boundary is selected.
I have no idea of what is going on. I thought I followed the correct procedure to make this work, but I must be missing something.
