area doesn't fill correctly

In tecroids image for exmaple path goes down, right, up, right, down, right and so on except for letters so on.

May be it's Spiral vs Zig-Zag option?

hi,
i just played around a bit and i think i've found some good working configuration.
However, I've got some questions.
Is it possible to set the zig zag orientation? sometimes it would be easier if it was the other way..
Next, I find it a bit disturbing that my mill pre penetrates any corner of the zig zag about five times before it mills.. can i reduce that number?

There should be angle parameter which defines zig-zag "orientation"

What does that mean?

When engraving an area the machine runs a straight line, goes up to safe z, goes down, runs next line and so on..
i'd like it to engrave the whole area and only going to safe position when neccessary..

I think it's actually not possible :/

well, should be since it saves much time..
