is it possible to add extension?

[ChunduriS]

Currently, I am using Inkscape to generate G-Code from image for Laser-GRBL.

Every time it is difficult for me to convert image into G-Code and transfer to the GRBL.

So, i need to generate the G-code with in GRBL. Is it possible to add Inkscape as extension to the Laser-GRBL.

processes i need to do:-
Step 1:- Input image
Step 2:- identifying the points
Step 3:- generate a G-Code by using points
Step 3:- G-Code to laser microcontroller for engraving or Cut operation
Step 4:- output.

Why don't you use Vectorize option in LaserGRBL? It can create paths, and you don't have to mess in Inkscape. Or, LaserGRBL can even engrave images directly.

Hi Alex,

Can you tell me how to use this Vectorize option in GRBL.

Once you've opened LaserGRBL, click on Open File:

Select the image you want to engrave, then click Open (Image can be PNG, JPG, JPEG etc, but make sure it is not an SVG vector file)
After opening an image, you can choose the processing method. It can be 1bit BW dithering, Vectorize, Centerline, or if you don't want LaserGRBL to make any processing on your image Passthrough. Now we are going to use Vectorize. If you image, like mine has too much white space, you can auto-crop it (marked with a red arrow):

The finished preview (Vectorize and cropped):

Click Next, then set your engraving speed and power:

Then click Create, the vectorized image should appear in LaserGRBL's engraving preview:
