Re: Turns LED off when printing begins

Does the same code work in the Dremel?

Re: Factory File Should Save Model Scale

+1

I posted the same request last week. Being able to do transformations relative to your original imported model's position, rotation and scale is essential. I was a little shocked to find it gets reset on save/ load of the factory file!

Re: Create supports for tall parts without overhangs?

I'm trying to add manual supports, but along sheer vertical flat walls of a model with a very small footprint. There are no "overhangs" though, so the sotware will not allow me to put any supports there since there isn't any geo above to "clip" it off. I want to manually define t...

Create supports for tall parts without overhangs?

Is there a way to force creation of manually placed supports along the vertical walls of tall parts to add extra structure during printing? As far as I can tell it will only let your place them where the software detects an overhang collision above to determine the top cut off. It would be good to b...

Re: Turns LED off when printing begins

Do you know if these same commands (or similar ones) could be used to control the color of the Dremel Idea Builder LEDs since it is a rebranded Flashforge Dreamer? They offer no way to change from the blue-ish color lighting unless you plug it into a host computer via USB, so this would be a welcome...

Re: Dynamic Update of Dimensions When Changing Scale Values

After a few more hours setting up prints I can honestly say that having the dimensions update dynamically when a new scale is typed in would be my #1 feature request. It's a drag to adjust scale, close the dialog, reopen, check new dimensions, then repeat until my desired size has been achieved. Thi...

Ah! Thanks!

Seems like a more accessible toggle function would be a handy UI addition though.

Show Build Table Option In Main UI?

I've noticed that if you turn off display of the Build Table in the Print Preview, it is still gone once you return to the main UI. Maybe I'm overlooking something but I cannot find an option to turn it back ON without running the "Prepare to Print" again, waiting for it to process then ch...

Re: Indicator for front of build platform?

That sounds like an interesting option, but what I'm talking about is a permanent icon so you can always see an indication of the front of the table. Or maybe a strip of another color along front edge.
