Feature Request: Line merging

LightBurn Software Questions

Hi folks,

The current common line implementation works only when both lines start and end at the same points.

When nesting, we often end up with 2 parts touching that only have part of the line in common.
Eg:

    +-------------------+
	|                   |
	|                   |
	|  1         2      |    3
	+-------+-----------+----------+
	        |                      |
			|                      |
			+----------------------+

Where line section 2 is a candidate for merging, but does not appear to be handled currently.

Thank you for your suggestion. You are correct. It’s on our list to provide an easy way to remove undesired overlapping line segments. Not there yet but on the list to provide.

It does work if one line covers another completely, like this:

But you are correct that partial overlaps are not handled at this time.
