im unsing inkscape for my small engraving/mill machine. im trying to mill a solid circle but all tje gcode export give me is a single toolpath 1 line circle. how can i setup my shape so that my mill cuts the whole cirlce as a slid peice. i want to cut a sloid 2 inch wide by 1 mm deep circle?
When you say it gave you a "1 line circle", what's the difference between that and a "whole circle"? Which Inkscape extension did you use? Extensions menu > Gcodetools > Engraving? Or was it a 3rd party extension that you had to install?

Use the 'Area' extension from the GCode tools. That one is meant to create carved out areas.
