    Thanks for the help,

    I decided to go with using the API as it was the quickest way to get the system up and running. 
    However when the software receives and completes the job in the API mode it returns back to the normal paint mode instead of back into the API job listener. 
    Is it possible to be returned back into the listener state instead of the normal paint mode once it completes the drawing? 
    Cheers

    I have only spent a few days working on this project so I guess I don’t have the correct terminology sorry. 

    Just to clarify everything:
    What I need to do is write a program which will take an svg file and draw it onto a post-it note for a human to peel.
    The functionality is that I need to take the svg file and then get the EiBot to draw the file.
    I have spent the last few days trawling through all the code trying to gain a better understanding of the entire process.
    Questions:
    • Is the wbc drawing components dependant on inkscape? If so would it be scriptable to specify a svg to be drawn?
    • Does any of the other software have little/no dependancies on user input in their drawing components?
    • Can I run any of your software through a terminal specifying a svg file either via terminal or code.

    Once I know this I can determine whether I am heading in the right direction.

    Cheers.
