well that appears to be a good workaround, BUT.... first gambit...that entry is currently blank ( <machineBackgroundModel></machineBackgroundModel>) so how does S3D already bring up a model of a bed? EG: where/what is it pulling up an image from? I have at least 10-15 FFF's I'll have to edit, but al...

v4x you use to be able to edit/include your own bed image. V5.x those options under TOOLS -> OPTIONS -> MACHINE don't include the entry box wher you could define a STL to represent your print bed. I REALLY need to be able to add some index /linesmarks on my print bed to define print specific print a...

have to wonder here...with ANY work flow, why wouldn't you save your job to a local file before exporting to the printer to begin with? just curious. you apparently REALLY trust your computer to not hiccup.

ptegler

bummer...yep...just came looking to see if S3D supported exclusion statements. Apparently not :-( Seems it would be relatively easy to implement as the parameters of objects is know if/when you use skirts. If any xy coord fell within that range, it should be easy for S3D to add the proper commands t...

WHY... would the Print Preview (as well as the printer in action) in V5 be doing retractions in Vase Mode? see gcode included here.... ; G-Code generated by Simplify3D(R) Version 5.0.1 ; Feb 1, 2023 at 7:38:09 PM ; Settings Summary ; processName,Process 1 ; targetModels,testpot1 ; profileName,RR_V-C...

plain and simple... ALL configured slicer setting should be 'saved' with the material selection. Even any print qualtiy alternate settings are still dependent on the material you are printing!

This is one feature I'd hoped they'd fix with the next rev (v5) But alas....no dice. V5 was no better.

ptegler

yep..not slicer coding issue...that's a hardware settings issue. Acceleration is too high, belts are too loose, or trying to print too fast. You have to find the balance for your machines capabilities

have to agree ...the 'standard' is a physically formatted mult-iline graphics. If anything v4.1.x was at fault for reading a single line incorrectly. BTDT run any other of the 'free' slicers' and look at the icon code.... it's all multi-line. p.s. Your included gcode sample did not open/display in m...

People keep asking for Klipper support. This request is for a feature that does not need to be included in a software revision. I believe a simple on line document or FAQ regarding variable names would allow people to script there own needs or post processing scripting. Example 1: Currently in v5 S3...

ptegler

same boat...nothing from S3D staff? possible post processing to pickup the correct parameters to fill in the script in g-code file gene'ed by S3D?
