ArcWelderLib VS PrusaSlicer

definitely arc welder, but you have to have g1 g2 enabled on your firmware. read this command here here and you can download the console app to run it on your exported gcode on arcwelders github

For other slicers, you will need to use a script like ArcWelder (Cura Plugin) (Script for other slicers)

Look into Arc Welder for further explanation and as a potential solution (though it is not perfect and can have its own downsides). The OctoPrint plugin is no longer maintained afaik, but there is a Cura plugin and other slicer post-processing methods.

You could also post process your sliced model through ArcWelder and get perfect arc curves for your print. It will go through the G-codes, detect curves, and change them to G2/G3 arc codes removing the edges completely.

if you're feeling really adventurous you could manually apply arcwelder using CLI https://github.com/FormerLurker/ArcWelderLib

I do this with my Prusa MK3S with MMU2S. It cannot be done without this fix in PrusaSlicer, however (which hasn't been merged into a release).

If you’d like to support my request https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues/11102 and leave a comment or a 👍. Any support is welcome and helps to get this feature implemented in PrusaSlicer. Thank you in advance!

That's it. I haven't seen many mentions of global variables other than This GitHub page from March so I hope this helps people.

Example: "The feature was ported from BambuStudio, thanks to @bambulab for the initial implementation." https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/releases/tag/version_2.6.0-beta4

It may be worth filing a feature request issue for your use case with the PrusaSlicer project.

There is an issue with PrusaSlicer that needs to be fixed to make it work for true multi-material printing. At this time, the nozzle can jam when switching from a high temperature to a lower temperature filament, because the purge is attempted at the lower temperature, which can cause the nozzle to jam. I fixed it in this PR (so that purging happens at the higher of the two temperatures) but it never got merged into the current release, and given the PR backlog, I doubt it ever will. In any case, that fix converts the MMU into a true multi-material printer. I can now print PLA with PETG supports, for example. Or mix PLA with PLA+. I have to use my own PrusaSlicer build to do this, however.

Hi, I have a project based on https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/tree/master that I want to create a .app for to try on another laptop. however i just can't figure out how. it seems like xcode build will do that for you, however upon using cmake with -GXcode it does create a project and I can debug/run my app with it. but there is no .app within the file structure.
