Re: Feature Request: Dynamic Extrusion Width/Gap Fill

Just to add my findings here, it seems that v4 has added this variable gap fill and it's working really well from my tests! I've been doing a lot of testing and printing with it over the last day, so I made a long post about my finding at the link below in case it helps others. https://forum.simplif...

Re: Filament Data not saved in Filament settings

It's working fine for me in v4. If you want the filament properties to change with the material drop-down list selection, you have to configure it that way. Go to File > Export FFF Profile, save your profile to your hard drive, and then open the .fff file in a text editor (it's just a standard XML f...

Re: V4 Gcode viewer orbit super slow!!!

Seems to work the exact same for me. 4.0 is just as fast as 3.1.

You might want to double-check that you are actually loading the same file. The easiest way to do that would be to just export your gcode file, then go to File > Preview G-Code File to load it into each program.

Re: Slicer behavior for thin walled sections

So I've been testing and printing non-stop for the last 24 hours, and it seems like version 4.0 addresses pretty much every issue mentioned in this thread!

Re: Only perimeter G Code being created

I would go to the Advanced tab and enable "merge all outlines into a single solid model". Then go back to the Layer tab and set the number of outline perimeters to 1, top and bottom solid layers to 0, and the infill to 0% as well. Then it will print a perfect single perimeter.

Re: Cancel Print and return home button

I setup a few macros so that when I stop a print, I can choose what action to perform. I have different macros depending on if the print finished successfully (a wait, cooldown, then present the part macro) versus if the print failed (a get out of the way quick macro) So that might be an option so y...

Re: How to send print head to home?

The "G28 X0" command should already home the head. So there should be no other changes required.
