I also have the impression that Inkscape runs a lot more stable and faster on the same machine using Fedora. Especially when dragging, scaling or convertig objects/path groups.

Little update for people who also have this problem:

I now use Fedora 24 Design Suite x64 and everything works like a charm, the script does it’s work and so the error was directly connected to Windows Python. Thanks for the hint Windell :)

Ok now, this is strange. When I use the script, the window appears for a split second and then just quits. I waited for half an hour, but nothing – CPU was also on idle which I assume tells it does nothing. Look at this capture. I selected all individual objects here.

Can you share some detail on your machine / OS you are on? Because, If it works for you, I might just use another PC/OS if necessary.

I am on x64 Win7 12GB RAM and Inkscape 0.91 latest

Thanks for your answer Windell, much appreciated.

I attach the two files in question for reference.

I had some success now with “quasi_crystal.svg” – I just selected half of the objects, reordered them with the Eggbot TSP script and it worked. So i ordered them in two batches and the results was as expected.
However with “ulrich_voronoi.svg” I still have the problem with the script not working.

It seems that the script does not like the amount of objects. Is there anything to do about it?

If, for example, your file consists of many points that are all part of the same path

Is there a solution to split them to multiple paths or so?

Thanks, much appreciated!

Hey there, I have the same question, but unfortunately neither restack nor Eggbot optimize paths works for me.

I have generated a file from the weighted Voronoi stippler (http://www.saliences.com/projects/npr/stippling/index.html) and want to optimize it. If I select only a few points (like 200) it works. Sadly it does not work for more than that.

Also output svg of Eric Weeks’ quasi.c do not reorder.

I tried both 32 and 64 bit versions of Inkscape.

Strangley, the builtin Restack also does not work.

Any clues? For most of my work right now, the Axidraw is not very effective because I waste about 90% time with the machine going across the board.
