I am running into this error all the time when I load a design. The UI pops up, shows the error, auto-refreshes, shows the error again, and repeats. It does not seem to happen when offline, just when online. It happens on lots of different designs, including one I did today that was just 3 rectangles created in inkscape.
This is seriously compromising my ability to make cuts; it happens repeatedly when I’m trying to make any changes. How can I track down what is going on?
I see a couple of things with it…you have overlapping vector paths at the sides of the center rectangle, and they are the same stroke color. That confuses the interface. (And will result in a double cut.)
Also, (and I don’t know if it will affect anything or not), but the rectangles extend across the boundaries of the artboard that you set up. You might want to copy that into a new file with an artboard of 20" x 12", (508 mm x 304.8 mm if you prefer to design in metric), and delete the two sides of the center rectangle. (Just leave the top and bottom paths, the sides of the center will be cut out by the rectangles on either side of the center one.)
Yes, I did it quick and dirty as a test. But when I actually got the UI to behave, it cut fine. Which is the same experience I’ve been having on other designs. Here’s another one that has been problematic; can you see if anything jumps out at you?
If you have any primitives that are not ordinary paths the GFUI will error out. This drove me crazy (a short drive in the best of times) trying to figure out why I was getting that same error when a very similar design did not. Finally, I realized that the one causing the error still had the offset in place so I selected everything and set them to path via…
