Feature Request: Ironing

One of the biggest complaints that I've seen in the various forums is that S3D doesn't have an Ironing feature. Basically it does the following...

The last layer (or selected layers) would stop extruding and the hot end nozzle would slowly go across the surface in the opposite manner of the last print lines. This would effectively "sand" the surface and provide much smoother finish to the final top layer. Could be placed in options somewhere.

I totally agree. Check out this video on it. Also, a textured surface can be done with just the silicer!! :)

gcodestat integrates with Simplify3D and allow you to
Calculate print time accurately (acceleration, max speed, junction deviation all taken into consideration)
Embed M117 codes into G-Code
Upload your G-Code directly to Octoprint
open source and unlicence
