Dear Xaveer,
As you’ve seen from the registration mail, I had previously tried with pyclipper installed, but then uninstalled it when I ran into the bug. I’m pasting the original question from my email here, so anyone who runs into the issue the info also in the forum.
I’m trying to convert an image to gds. Without pyclipper installed, conversion completes, but the gds file is missing some of the structures. With pyclipper installed, I get the following error message:
nz.image(fn+”.png”,
4 size = 8992, pixelsize = 2.7, threshold = 0.5,
5 cellname = ‘SP’).put()File ~\Anaconda3\envs\nazca\lib\site-packages\nazca\bb_util.py:1622, in image(name, layer, size, pixelsize, threshold, cellname, invert, align, box_layer, box_buf)

227 for i, pi in enumerate(inner): # Remove each hole from the outer polygon
228 if i in todo and pc.PointInPolygon(pi[0], po):
229 # Subtract with tether.

231 todo.remove(i)
232 result.append(po)File ~\Anaconda3\envs\nazca\lib\site-packages\nazca\clipper.py:186, in _subtract_polygon(XYo, XYi)

187 return polyUnboundLocalError: local variable ‘ndxo’ referenced before assignment
I checked the source code, and it seems it never jumps into the if-condition starting at line 180? I have two concentric circles in the design, the smaller one white, the larger one black, could they be causing the issue
for i, (x, y) in enumerate(XYo[1:]):
# print(f”{i} -> {i+1}: {(xo, yo)} -> {x, y}”)
if yo >= yp and y <= yp and (xo < xp or x < xp):
# Line segment intersecting with horizontal.
# Calculate distance to intersection point
xi = _x_intersect((xo, yo), (x, y), yp)
d = xp – xi
if d > 0 and d < dmin:
dmin = d
ndxo = i + 1
point = (xi, yp)
xo, yo = x, y
# Construct polygon
poly = XYo[0:ndxo] + [point] + XYi[ndxi:] + XYi[0:ndxi + 1] + [point] + XYo[ndxo:]
return poly
I then tried with the new version of Nazca you sent via email and re-installed pyclipper. Indeed, the error message is gone now and conversion completes. However, the behaviour is unchanged: in the white background / black outer circle / white inner circle, only the inner circle is shown, whereas for the inverted blac background / white outer circle / black inner circle, all structures are converted.
I am now working around the problem by first inverting the .png image, and then using
nz.image(fn+”.png”, invert=True).put()
which works for my immediate problem.
Thank you!
