Easy to implement, no. Already the definition of the data structure is not trivial. That example code will not simply work with an SVG describing a ring (= circle with a hole) as it would just union a big and a smaller circle so the hole would be lost. ciao, Torsten.

You are right. My fast example did not cover these cases, but this is not important for functional stuff, where you can discover negative volumes. This code $fn = 4; difference() { circle(20); circle(10); } will give: <?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC &quot;-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN&quot; &quot;http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd&quot;> <svg width="40mm" height="40mm" viewBox="-20 -20 40 40" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1"> <title>OpenSCAD Model</title> <path d=" M 20,-0 L 0,-20 L -20,-0 L 0,20 z M -10,-0 L 0,-10 L 10,-0 L 0,10 z " stroke="black" fill="lightgray" stroke-width="0.5"/> </svg> and I would expect to get this: import = [[[ 20,-0 ],[ 0,-20 ],[-20,-0], [ 0,20]], [[ -10,-0],[ 0,-10 ],[ 10,-0 ],[ 0,10]]]; which results from the M sections. Currently I am using my own converter for this. But it would be a nice to have. Also equivalentkly for STLs. -- Sent from: http://forum.openscad.org/
