Re: live preview missing

Live preview also had a better progress indicator, showing current layer, % complete and remaining time. The one included in the machine control panel doesn't have any detail...just a bar.

Agree. I use this feature extensively in V4 and it was a surprise that it is missing in V5.

Yeah. Removing the live view is something I can't understand. Really...

Re: live preview missing

+1 - This is critical for printing through USB, and differentiates S3D from several other slicers.

Re: live preview missing

This was the most used feature when 3dprinting over usb, you were able to keep an eye on your 3dprint progress, and being able to see when problematic parts of the 3dprint were coming up.

Re: live preview missing

I had many designs that had color changes I would perform on certain layers. I manually did this and monitored the live preview to know when I had a layer color change coming up. I find myself still using version 4 most of the time from all the lost features. Would love to use the improvements in version 5 but on some prints it's not possible for me to have a successful print for various reasons. I'm printing 5-15kg a week on several printers for my businesses and would love to see these simple features back
