    Hi!
    Installed on Ubuntu 16.04, tried to make a gcode for pycam.stl. Unfortunately the toolpath seemed to cut out everything inside the bounds. I decided to test and confirmed - tool makes just a flat-bottomed box, nothing more. Other STLs produce the same.
    Where should I start to investigate?

    OK

    PS. Found both the cause and the solution.

    Maybe this should be fixed.

    Hi,

    I have converted the 'patch' into a GitHub issue:
