G2 or G3 command line help
I have been attempting to make a script file to use the G2/ G3 Gcode to print arc segments, circles etc. Here is a sample command series to print a pair of circles. It does make a circular movement but there is no extrusion accompanied with the command. I am using the header file that is produced by PrusaSlic3r so I do get the nozzle purge and z height move to in this case z0.200.

G1 X145.000 y105.000
G2 X144.999 Y104.775 I-25 j0 E0.77885
Any ideas why no filament is being extruded?

Just in case capitalization mattered. I can print a line segment no problem now I get no circular movement and no extrusion for the circle commands. There must be a syntax problem but I cant see it I'm going to bed Ill try again tomorrow hopefully someone will steer me in the right direction.
RE: G2 or G3 command line help
Maybe you use absolute mode for the extruder. Try to reset the extruder position between actions with `G92 E0.0`.
