Well, the wizard makes it cut badly. Something's up in the software I think.

I don't know. Maybe it is something to do with that last time I updated. It was around that time that it started doing this. I'm going to cut another one using the gcode you posted, just to be certain.

I just made that 2nd square from the gcode you posted Tommy and it's perfect again. No blatant ripping-off til I can cut good stuff too!

So any ideas what I should do now? Maybe uninstall and reinstall?

I just ran your code in a sim on both 2.8 and master and it appears to run OK.
Can you try a new one but without kerf width compensation.
EDIT: looking at your pen plot here forum.linuxcnc.org/plasma-laser/38918-my...ild?start=300#169847 it seems that it applied the compensation along the x axis cut rather than just the leadin.
Try increasing the leadin length. Pen plots are fine. Does the previe screen show the same shpe?

I missed that Tom. It is good in previews here on sims as well, and it should as it is only a simple bit of code.
Baffling...

I definitely don't understand 99% of this stuff, but I do know that things typically don't change on their own. I'm still wondering if the update got corrupted somehow (would explain why nobody else is reporting these issues).

I guess anything is possible.
I just ran your code on my machine (with a pen) which is running 2.8 and it worked fine.
I will make a rip build of master and try that.
