LazyCam (Beta) / Re: Offset not working right, V2.02

Chip, only time i can get clean to not work successfully is if line tol is set to too small a value resulting in open chains after cleaning. Any open chains containing arc segments will give results you see on your fuel brkt and also appears to confuse offset inside/outside. Having said that your 1st pic failed as result of not cleaning before offsetting (either by omision or clean failure). With 0.001 tol it works every time here. Second pic can't comment on circle prob as no dxf to play with.
Your fuel bracket works everytime here with outside offset ok on outer chain, inside offset works ok on 2 holes upper right and 2 holes bottom left, and 4 holes on left work correctly using drill sel circle function. However there is problem here in that if you get this far then the post processor incorrectly generates zero arc radius in a few lines which Mach doesn't like in posted g-code, so another one for Art.
Not sure if above is a help or hinderance but all helps I suppose :-)
