Upload the model or Grasshopper file or mention of what component was used. I'm not sure if the native Make2D Rhino command is the same in Grasshopper.

I think the forum fixed the ability to upload .gh script *files* in replies, instead of just an image. I can't reproduce that even if I tried, due to the older components and any right click hard wired inputs.

Also, are you just baking from Grasshopper and then using Make2D and getting such weird output, or is there another Grasshopper step? Make2D (in the menu Dimension>Make 2-D Drawing) is one way, as is Technical drawing mode in the viewport pop-up menu settings. It's unclear which you are using, or Grasshopper.

Grasshopper definition is already uploaded above.

Cheers!

Oh, you added it there, along with useful notes in the script. Gotcha. But I'm getting weird output since I don't have your initial curve/arc. You could internalize that with a right click, to help.

Make2D is still not reliable enough, I note, though they vastly improved it in Rhino 5. Instead, just Pen display mode and a screen capture worked better, but I only have a crude version of your output. My curve scale was too small before so everything was bunched together.
