3D GCode Viewer integrated with DWC
-
That makes sense indeed!
OK, next!
Given the 'small-ish' sample G code file, zoom in like this:
Zoom 1 step further, and the model disappears:
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
-
@Exerqtor I do like the solid edges idea tho so I’ll probably do that

Starting to put some work into CNC gcode files.
Tried my solid rendering to see how a 3d carve would look.
Edit : A couple extra pics

Just pushed out a new release with support for G2/G3.
https://github.com/Sindarius/DWC_GCodeViewer_Plugin/releases/tag/0.11.0

sorry for my stupid question, how install your viewer, besose i send your dwc in my duet and a not viewer menu
-
@Sindarius
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 -
@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.
-

Are there known issues with the latest version on a maestro?
Cant't get it working anymore. (RRF 3.2_b4 +0.11.1)
The previous versions of fw and plugin worked. (guess RRF 3.2_b2 +0.6.5) -
@DIY-O-Sphere I pulled down and installed the 3.2-beta4 that is on GitHub, I normally run my own build, and was able to install my plugin without any problems. Make sure you are pulling the latest version of my plugin from the github releases page https://github.com/Sindarius/DWC_GCodeViewer_Plugin/releases. I don't believe the firmware version itself should have any play since the plugin is a javascript solution that runs in DWC itself.
Just double check the following to make sure you are on the latest

After de-energising and powering up everything is working now....
A simple sw-reset after the update was not enough..... -
