Re: [REQ]: Separate settings for dual extrusion

This works, although it's not very intuitive nor flexible. You have to ungroup/regroup every time you need to link/unlink values. But it works!

Thanks for the solution!

[SOLVED] "[REQ]: Separate settings for dual extrusion"

There are many setting currently linked when using dual extrusion that in my opinion should not be. For example: Infill settings, speed settings, support setting etc. I haven't checked them all, but it seems there are many which should not be linked. Also I find it essential to have an indicator of ...

Re: Printing without bottom/top layer

Top Solid Layers = 0
Bottom Solid Layers = 0
Optionally check "Single outline corkscrew printing mode"

All of the above are in the "Layer" tab of your process settings.

Re: Force Bed Temperature A Few Degrees Higher

I'm not an expert on Marlin, but it sounds like your PID integral constant is zero. Try tuning your PID: http://reprap.org/wiki/PID_Tuning Or a dirty hack: Set the temperature using M140 S[bed0_temperature] (this should not wait for the bed to reach target temperature) remove M190 and then add a dwe...

Re: Feature proposal: Local adaptive slicing

I'm pretty sure that this is entirely covered by the tutorial "Different Settings for Different Regions of a Model" but a way to automatically generate those settings based on a specified slope would save time setting up all of those Processes manually. Not even close. This only gives you...

Re: 2.2.1 First look

Big improvement in printing sequence optimization. Was printing a grid with holes yesterday and it was moving all over the place with lots and lots of unneeded traveling from one side of the model to the other. I just tried the same model with 2.2.1 and it was nicely following the optimal sequence t...

Yes. When I say walls I mean the outline of the part, including top, bottom and any internal cavity outlines.

Feature proposal: Adaptive infill

Varying infill percentage based on distance from walls, feature size, curvature, etc. Look at the way any FEA meshing software works and you will know what I mean. Especially Cartesian 3D meshing. Distance from walls is by far the easiest and I believe robust enough method to determine infill densit...

Feature proposal: Local adaptive slicing

In order to get good finish and precision in near horizontal surfaces, you need to slice the entire model using a small layer thickness which results in low printing speeds. There are many cases where one has to print with 0.1 mm layer height just to capture a small percentage of the features of the...
