      Yes, graphics driver is recent. That is the first thing I update when encountering display issues in software.
      (it never ever resolved them though 🙂 )

        @DaBit You can go to the tools in the inspector tab and export a babylon file. That will export all of the meshes vertices to a file and you can look at them. may show if they are really wrong.

        Edit : Thanks for sharing your gcode file. I was able to recreate the issue by using your gcode.

          I am seeing quite large numbers in the Babylon file in the vertexData array for index 8 after 'weird behaviour', and further in the list the numbers are only growing, in the 3-million-range.

          (left is OK, right is 'weird behaviour')

            @DaBit I think I found it! There was an issue where my processor was throwing away commands like G90 and G91 because it didn't have any tokens like X0 etc. Clearly a problem on my side. What happened is at the end of your gcode you had a line "G91 G1 Z20 F500" which caused my processor to pick up the G91 and go into relative mode. The next render would stay in relative mode and not read the G90 early on so it would just keep adding the coordinates to each other which lead to the massive numbers.

            Got it fixed here.

              That makes sense indeed!

              OK, next! 😁

              Given the 'small-ish' sample G code file, zoom in like this:

              Screenshot 2020-11-27 195102.png

              Zoom 1 step further, and the model disappears:

              Screenshot 2020-11-27 195124.png

              And a personal preference: I don't like the 'viscous' behaviour while rotating/panning/zooming very much. I would love to have a checkbox to turn that off.

              Anyway, quite happy with the plugin. Thanks for giving us that!
              Very useful to check if the file on the SD card that you printed 3 months ago is indeed the one you want to print now.

                @DaBit I know what is causing the zoom in thing. with orbit cameras there is a target point and when you shift and pan that target moves. When you hit that 0 point the camera flips sides. It's annoying and something I am trying to find a better solution for. I can look into an inertia toggle but it's been fairly low on my list.

                  I have a little suggestion/wish for a feature or improvement to how the object model "block" is displayed. How if instead of being a translucent green box all the time, it would be a neon-green "outlines" (like the volum view in settings) until you hover over the object and it then turns to the green box. i think that would look much cleaner.

                  And maybe a slider for adjusting the hue of the lines and transparancy of the box as well?

                    Reporting a small issue, upgrading to Beta_4 breaks the plugin. Not surprisingly I guess.

                    An error is reported saying "Error: Plugin GCODEViewer requires incompatible DWC version (need 3.2.0-beta3, got 3.2.0-beta4)"

                    Great plugin though!

                      @Alex-cr The screenshot didn't come through but I have updated the plugin zip file to flag to the latest beta4 version.

                        @Exerqtor I'd have to play with it because the hit testing may ignore the transparent area and honestly I tend to think people wouldn't leave it on after cancelling objects because it is so easy to misclick and potentially cancel something you didn't mean to (even with the dialog).

                          Yeah that's a valid point 😅

                                    You may want to edit your first post and remove the link the original DWC builds, replacing it with a link to the new github repo releases page

                                    Owns various duet boards and is the main wiki maintainer for the Teamgloomy LPC/STM32 port of RRF. Assume I'm running whatever the latest beta/stable build is

                                      @jay_s_uk that’s probably a good idea since that dates to Sept 2019 😱

                                      Edit : Updated. It may be time time to start a new thread...

                                        @bastien which version of dwc are you running?? The latest version of my viewer is now a plugin that runs on dwc 3.2-beta 4.
