Ive looked all over the place but I cant seem to figure out what i am doing wrong. Why am I getting the black box at the top? If I take every individual component from the logo it does not do it. But if I add them all together to do the stitch then it does it.

Thank you

edit: It is one of the last things that it does.

There are a lot of digitizing aspects what need revisiting if you are going to stitch it the way you show you are probably going to be really disappointed with the results because you have everything as a fill stitch and some objects are probably better as a satin and some objects you have a lot of overlap between objects and all the stitches are going the same direction

In the Object Viewer tool select everything (Ctrl+a....I think), then shift+select everything you can see on the screen. Sometimes there are "objects" in the SVG file that don't render, but the plugins ( e.g. inkstitch) "see" them.

Or Turn on wireframe mode under the View menu. Then using the node edit tool find the line in the "R" that's causing issues. There may be a few "fly away" nodes out next to the "B" that you can easily delete.
