In Inkscape I used Trace Bitmap on a JPG, exported it to OpenSCAD, and
it previews OK.
I then tried exporting from Inkscape as a DXF, which I understand some
users recommend. But when I imported that into OpenSCAD I get:
"WARNING: No top level geometry to render."
linear_extrude(21)
import("C:/Users/terry/Dropbox/3D
Printer/PROJECTS/PlugCover/StartAgain/Outline2Black.dxf");
In case it helps, here's the failed DXF
https://www.dropbox.com/s/cuvsu273kg48u8t/Outline2Black.dxf?raw=1
And here's the OK SVG:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/vqyvwqon773joo2/Outline2Black.svg?raw=1
Academic, as the SVG route works fine, but I'm curious to know why DXF
fails?
