Tracing a bitmap

[PeterGreen]

Hi,

I am trying to trace a bitmap of a simple triangular (ish) shape that i need to cut out in aluminium. I have used image trace in easel but this creates two lines. one for the inside of the shape and one for the outside. I just want one tool path for the shape for the bit to follow. does anyone know how to do this?

I have also tried a couple of svg converters online but these yield the same results.

Delete the larger triangle and set the smaller triangle to cut outside, or vice versa. If you are tracing an outline, you will end up with two shapes. If it is a solid colored shape, you would have just one shape.

Image Trace converting one line into two?

Not an elegant solution, but a quick one for this case: [delete_nodes] Just double click to enable node editing, select a node on the path you want to remove, and smash the delete key until it’s gone. Typically, I’d do this sort of stuff outside of Easel (Inkscape) and import an SVG.
