Kiri:Moto / Grid:Apps notes

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

  • B origin (and bed size) bug (Onshape?) when switching device modes

  • B can't drag slider bar on ipad / ios -- touch pad scrolling dodgy

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

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

  • P explore widget vertex reloading / replacing (Onshape) (issue #48)

  • P move all persisted / workspace settings/data to IndexedDB (LS limitations)

  • P do not move (average) endpoints connected to long lines in decimate

  • F create event-driven do/undo stack and port relevant actions to this

  • 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 and expose grouping feature

  • F add svgnest-like arrange algorithm

  • F warn if part hanging in negative Z space or off bed in general

FDM

  • 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 top/bottom 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 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 refactor skirt, brim, raft as synth widget instead of in path routing

  • P extruder + filament max flow rate cap in planner

  • P revisit path routing / optimization

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

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 auto bed resizing leaves the origin in the wrong place at first

  • B re-add progress calls for all work units

  • F test and enable arcs in belt moe

  • F refactor brims to be generated at slice time

  • F anchors should be generated anywhere needed in the print, not just head

  • F slightly angle supports to lean into the Z of the part

  • F arrange should align down Z, not side to side.

CAM

  • B tabs are not cut to exact height

  • B tabs do not properly track widget mirror events

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

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

  • B contour does not honor clip to stock?

  • F roughing flats should be constrained to flat region

  • F option to output discrete operations as a zip of .gcode files

  • F limit cut depth to flute length of selected tool (or warn)

  • F add ease-down support to trace op

  • F add linear clearing strategy

  • F add adaptive clearing strategy

  • F user-defined origin (issue #28)

  • 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 from faces, not slices

  • 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 to avoid jerk

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

  • P port arc code from FDM export to CAM export

  • 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
