      I used the same method with the floorplan

      vectorising in corel X3. it was a quite good result, the tracing function in corel is very good. no postprocess, export as dwg, import in SU and no filled fields...

        Hi jo-ke,

        there are many stray lines (plugin) . they have to be corrected manually.

                I removed all the stray lines but you can see some of the contour lines are not closed. This finding is hard work.

                And surely that isn't usable as a working model, is it? There isn't a single straight line there...

                            Thomas,

                            I have found now a plan with a resolution of 3335 x 4151 pixels. The result is good. But what I still do not understand is that double lines are generated.

                              Ah, it create a line for each side of the black pixels... is there a setting for that in the app you use?

                                Thomas,

                                In Inkscape I did it. The error was to use the edge detection. You have to use Brightness cutoff. Well, at least most of the lines are individual lines. Please have a look into the attached file.

                                  The result is perfect!

                                  I've quickly used "make faces" 😉 and pushpull and the result looks like that:

                                  (of course many lines (doors, fonts,...) need to be corrected but that is easy with that result.)
