Kiri:Moto todo and notes

C cosmetic, F functional, P performance, B bug fix

  • B origin bug (Onshape?) when switching modes in 2.5 and 2.6

  • P duplicate objects should share same slice data unless rotated or scaled

  • P allow selection to me decimated on demand (context menu?)

  • P improve decimation speed: omit point conversion or use wasm

  • P client/worker interface normalization

  • P explore widget vertex reloading / replacing (Onshape primarily)

  • F show slider range values in workspace units (on hover?)

  • F allow select of a range by typing in values in slices or workspace units

  • F add % field type with conversion (like units)

  • F complete G2/G3 arc output / input (85% now)

  • F expose grouping feature

  • F SVG import to 3D part like images

  • F integrate svg nest arrange algorithm

FDM

  • B infill densities are inaccurate

  • B fix support projection/end with grouped parts

  • B multi-extruder rendering of raft fails to offset the rest of the print

  • B multi-extruder purge blocks fail to generate properly for rafts

  • F support pillar should conform to part

  • F support pillar should have solid top/bottom

  • F more explicit line width control with ranges and min/max adaptive

  • F test outlining solid projected areas (internally)

  • F control for size of purge block (with 0=disabled)

  • F polishing and other non-planar work

  • F gradient infill https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hq53gsYREHU&feature=emb_logo

  • F feather sharp tips by reducing extrusion in area of overlap

  • F first layer segment large flat areas for better fill reliability

  • F enable purge blocks when quick layers are detected

  • F option to support interior bridges when 0% infill

  • F calculate filament use per extruder per print

  • F apply finish speed to exposed top and underside flat areas

  • F expand internal supporting flats / solids before projection

  • P extruder + filament max flow rate cap in planner

  • P revisit path routing / optimization

  • P implement infill clipping in wasm

  • P solid fill the tops of supports for down facing flats

  • P sparse infill should follow polys between intersect points

FDM - SLA

P common support area detection (fork new fdm code)

  • P prioritize supports by length of unsupported span. mandatory when circularity > X
  • or % area of inner to outer poly is high (making it a thin shell)
    

FDM - BELT

  • B multiple parts with one angled against origin "floats" in preview
  • B re-add progress calls for all work units
  • F arrange should just align down Z. no side to side.

CAM

  • B tabs are not cut to exact height

  • B first rough step too far down in certain circumstances?

  • B trace open polys are not wound consistently

  • B path routing with tabs sometimes makes no sense

  • B clicking on a pop-op should pin it until clicked or [esc]

  • B need to force cut line at synthetic z bottom (midlines, etc)

  • B non-clear-voids duplicates thru-holes

  • B starting export during animation unleashes chaos

  • B climb vs conventional not fully consistent after refactor

  • B outside cutting direction in roughing mode inverted

  • F import SVG into a path that can be overlaid onto a 3D mesh (laser?)

  • F intelligently turn circle hole pocket clear into spiral down

  • F trace follow hole that matches endmill should turn into a drill op

  • F add climb/conventional into each operation

  • F update analyzer to detect overhangs

  • F add linear clearing strategy option for roughing / pocket

  • F adaptive clearing in roughing mode

  • F extend acute roughing on inside polys to clear small voids

  • F option to use part / STL coordinate space to determine X,Y origin

  • F validate muti-part layout and spacing exceeds largest outside tool diameter

  • F polygon simplification option in tracing (for image derived maps)

  • F parameterize dropping close points in prep.js. ensure long segments remain straight

  • F flat and volumetric rendering of paths

  • F z planar settings visualizations

  • F convert acute angles to arcs

  • F lead-in milling

  • F trapezoidal tabs in Z

  • F ease-in and ease-out especially on tab cut-out start/stop

  • F add option to spiral in vs out (optimal tool life) vs mixed (optimal path)

  • F add support for tapered ball mills

  • F can animation clear the mesh in areas where the cuts go through the stock?

  • F support lathe mode / A-axis / rotary

  • F gcode output option as zip for multiple or flip ops or tool change

  • F ease-down should be engaged in all descending cutting operations

  • F entirely user-selectable origin

  • F maintain several part orientations + op chains in a single profile

  • P common part pre-analyze to speed up 'slice' and improve shadow (overhangs)

  • P redo all path route / planning in prepare to account for terrain before camOut

  • P detect render message backlog and pause or warn?

  • P allow faster z movements when contouring (not plunging)

  • P common / faster shadow generator using vertices shared with ledges
