Apron bands looked up their filament and nozzle config slot with a running
counter, while object layers use Layer::id(), so band N read the map of
object layer N. They precede layer 0 and now use its assignment.
Raised in Hanif Koh's review of #14394.
The per-filament island tour was cached by island centroids only. A later layer with the
same centroids but fewer islands (thin walls, negative volumes) reused the stale visit
list, whose catch-all index pointed past the layer's islands, and extrude_perimeters read
freed memory (three fuzz crashes, planar and belt). The per-instance island layout is part
of the cache key and the use site never indexes past the islands.
Brings in upstream/belt-printer (the Sept 14 main merge) plus Hanif Koh's
21 review-fix commits from PR #15685, on top of the MachineKinematics
refactor and the purge-prism / tree-support / first-layer-speed fixes.
Conflict resolution:
- BeltGCodeWriter is gone (kinematics refactor), so Hanif's plate-offset
fix for it is ported into GCodeWriter: the first-layer-plane checks in
travel_to_xy / travel_to_xyz / _travel_to_z now evaluate the plate-local
point, and BeltGCode::init_belt_writer hands the stored plate origin to
the writer it installs.
- init_belt_writer(Print&) takes Hanif's signature; the BBL flag is set on
the surviving writer by GCode::_do_export.
- The shared emit_belt_brim_bands() loop keeps the BeltFloorObjectGuard the
local branch added, so apron bands classify first-layer height against
their own object.
- eager_lift keeps effective_type: it now carries set_force_normal_lift().
- GCodeWriter's initializer list follows Hanif's member order with
m_kinematics in its declared position.
- TreeSupport::detect_overhangs uses Hanif's clamped build_plate_tilt_slope()
for the non-belt path and the belt shear for the belt path.
BeltGCode is only created for belt printers, so its hooks no longer re-check belt_printer, and the BBL-machine flag is set once on whichever writer survives init_belt_writer instead of on one about to be discarded.
Apron-only layers printed every band with the first tool, so objects with different brim filaments at the same apron Z shared one filament. Emit each brim filament's bands with its own toolchange.
The ordinary-layer path kept its own copy of the apron band loop. Give emit_belt_brim_bands() an optional brim filament filter and call it from the per-extruder lambda; without a filter it still prints every band, so apron-only layers are unchanged.
The belt writer replaced the plate-offset-carrying writer mid-export, so belt G-code for any plate but the first kept the plate origin and long-travel clipping used the wrong frame. GCode now remembers the offset and hands it to the new writer, and the writer's first-layer probes use the plate-local point it emits.
Fixes the report in #12998 (comment 5465250754): first-layer speed and the
slow_down_layers ramp were ignored on a belt printer. The report reads as a
per-object problem, but neither applied to *any* object -- the reporter's first
part slowed down because slow_down_for_layer_cooling was on, which is
CoolingBuffer's time-per-layer mechanism, not initial_layer_speed.
FirstLayerPlane decides first-layer-ness by perpendicular distance to a plane it
derives by composing gcode_remap_* with compute_machine_z_affine(). The plane is
therefore a function of how G-code is *addressed*, not of where the belt is:
change the output axis convention and the plane moves. On MCBELT-TYPE2 the
first layer measured 86.2 mm from the plane and got effective index 431, far
past any slow_down_layers ramp.
on_first_layer(point) and effective_layer_index_for_point() now measure height
above the belt surface, using the belt description already carried in
SlicingParameters -- belt_floor_shear_factor / belt_floor_from_axis /
belt_floor_z_shift -- the same description the support generator uses. That is a
property of how the object was sliced, so no remap or back-transform can perturb
it.
Deliberately not via BeltFloorContext: its init() folds in
belt_support_floor_offset, a support-generator diagnostic, and letting that
option steer the model's first-layer speed band would be a surprising coupling
(a negative value would switch the slowdown off outright).
Preserving the existing first-layer-plane settings:
* first_layer_plane XY/YZ/XZ keeps the FirstLayerPlane evaluator, as those are
explicit opt-outs.
* A non-zero first_layer_plane_offset also keeps it. The offset is a machine-Z
shift that FirstLayerPlane converts into a perpendicular distance in the
slicing frame; this evaluator measures along slicing Z, so there is no
faithful translation. Deferring to the evaluator that implements the setting
beats silently ignoring it.
* The two thresholds stay separate, exactly as FirstLayerPlane keeps them:
the first-layer boolean tests initial_layer_print_height, while the
effective layer index counts bands of first_layer_plane_thickness.
Brim and coincident apron bands are emitted before m_layer is switched to their
object -- for an apron band there is no Layer at all -- so both paths publish the
belt-floor owner explicitly. Without that a brim's classification would borrow
whichever object was visited previously, making it depend on plate order.
Note that first-layer-ness drives more than speed: extrusion acceleration, jerk,
the first-layer flow ratio and eligibility for overhang speed/fan analysis all
read it, so all of them are corrected on belt printers by this change.
Classification still samples only each path's first point, as it did before.
Non-belt is unaffected by construction: belt_height_above_floor() returns false
when the belt floor is inactive and both call sites fall back to the previous
path. FirstLayerPlane stays in place for its other modes and for CoolingBuffer,
whose machine-coordinate probe is a separate outstanding bug.
Measured, MCTEST4 on MCBELT-TYPE2 (initial_layer_speed=5, slow_down_layers=40):
15 distinct feedrates with no gradient and F300 absent, becomes 70 including the
full ramp 300(5) 382(6) 465(8) 630(10) 795(13) ... Two bare cubes on a belt:
0 slow extrusions becomes 2378 across Z 32.36..95.18. The same two cubes on a
Cartesian printer keep their slow extrusions confined to Z 0.20..2.00.

Both change emitted G-code, which is why they were kept out of the extraction
commit. Both are wrong only where the machine mapping is non-identity, which is
the definition of each bug.
1. Suppress lifts commanded through an unknown position.
_travel_to_z() emits full XYZ whenever the mapping must emit every axis, because
the mapping can make machine Z depend on logical X/Y, and it builds that point
from m_pos. At print start, and after any custom G-code that invalidates
position, m_pos.xy is the uninitialised origin; mapping (0, 0, z) through a
non-identity remap produces a real but wrong machine point -- for a reverse
mapping, build_vol_max, i.e. the far corner of the bed. The subsequent full-XYZ
move corrects the position, but the lift has already commanded a rapid across
the whole bed at travel speed.
Belt kinematics already guarded this; the Cartesian path did not. The guard is
now applied at all three lift sites through must_skip_lift_now(), not just the
one the extraction covered: travel_to_xyz()'s pending-lift branch,
lazy_lift(spiral_vase=true), and eager_lift(). The latter two also needed the
state fix -- both recorded m_lifted = target_lift regardless, so suppressing
only the emission would leave a later unlift() descending from a height that was
never commanded.
2. Never emit a G2/G3 arc a mapping cannot represent.
extrude_arc_to_xy() emitted G2/G3 with logical X/Y and I/J and never consulted
the mapping. There is no general fix by transforming the arc: a permutation
moves it out of the XY plane that I/J describes, a negation reverses handedness,
and the belt shear maps a circle to an ellipse that G2/G3 cannot express at all.
So supports_arc_moves() gates generation through the existing
GCode::should_disable_arc_fitting() hook, and BeltGCode's special-case override
is deleted -- belt now gets the same behaviour from the general rule instead of
its own exception.
supports_arc_moves() is m_remap_x == 0 && m_remap_y == 1, not !has_axis_remap():
an arc emits only X/Y/I/J, so a mapping that merely negates or reverses Z leaves
every emitted word untouched and keeps its arcs.
The fallback for an unrepresentable arc tessellates it into linear segments at a
0.005mm chord tolerance rather than substituting a single chord, and splits dE
proportionally across the segments. The capability check is hoisted above every
extrusion mutation: an earlier form ran it after filament()->extrude(dE) and so
extruded 2*dE on the fallback path.
Known limits of that fallback, since it is worth stating rather than discovering:
emitted relative E is conserved only to per-segment rounding (a radius-5
semicircle with dE=1.5 emits 1.50012 across 36 segments); the 0.005mm bound is a
logical-frame bound, about 0.00855mm in machine space under a 45-degree belt
shear; unequal endpoint radii and non-finite inputs are unchecked. Ordinary
export takes the original polyline when the mapping rejects arcs, so this path
is a fallback rather than the normal route.
Known gap, not claimed fixed: classic wipe towers have their own
enable_arc_fitting and their own G2/G3 emitter in GCode/WipeTower.cpp, which
should_disable_arc_fitting() does not govern. Belt printers are barred from
classic wipe towers; a remapped Cartesian printer is not.
Tests in tests/fff_print/test_gcodewriter.cpp: reverse-X remap with unknown and
with known position plus an identity control; eager_lift emitting nothing and
recording nothing; the arc-capability matrix including the Z-only cases; and the
tessellated fallback. E accounting is asserted through used_filament() rather
than E(), which resets per line in relative-E mode.

BeltGCodeWriter subclassed GCodeWriter and overrode seven methods, five of them
by copying the base body and changing the transform. The base writer already
carried an axis remap and already branched at each of its seven
coordinate-emission decisions; the subclass did the same branching with a
different transform, and the two copies had begun to drift.
Replace the inheritance with a strategy object owned by GCodeWriter:
CartesianKinematics to_machine = the existing apply_axis_remap; today's base
behaviour, moved rather than changed.
BeltKinematics to_machine = MachineFrameTransform o axis_remap o
BeltBackTransform, plus a world_coordinates variant for
the PA calibration generators.
New: src/libslic3r/GCode/MachineKinematics.{hpp,cpp}, GCode/BeltKinematics.{hpp,cpp}
Deleted: src/libslic3r/BeltGCodeWriter.{hpp,cpp} (341 lines)
Points worth a reviewer's attention:
* The predicate is must_emit_all_axes(), not couples_axes(). The base returns
true for any non-identity remap, including pure permutations that do not
physically couple axes, so the question is "must every axis word be
emitted", not a statement about kinematics.
* Every per-site word-omission branch is preserved. The base deliberately
emits X/Y only, or Z only, or drops Z when its quantised value is unchanged.
The strategy changes which transform applies, never whether words are
omitted.
* set_kinematics() replays the configured remap and build volume onto a newly
installed strategy, because BeltGCode::init_belt_writer runs before
GCode.cpp calls set_axis_remap/set_build_volume_max.
* uses_pointwise_travel_speed() preserves a pre-existing divergence rather
than introducing one: the base travel_to_xyz emits the raw configured travel
speed in its final branch, ignoring the first-layer value computed at the
top, whereas the belt path used the first-layer-aware value throughout. Both
are kept. Unifying them changes feedrates and belongs in its own change.
* The [BELT-DEBUG] block is deleted; it rate-limited itself with a
function-local static thread_local in the hot emission path, and this is the
commit that would otherwise have moved it into shared code.
This commit is intended to preserve existing export output. That is reviewed by
construction -- each emission site keeps its own omission branch and each policy
divergence is preserved -- and is NOT verified against a G-code diff corpus.
Building that corpus is the outstanding work here.
Two API-equivalence exceptions, neither reachable by any caller today:
* Belt kinematics with no plane pointer installed, m_is_first_layer true,
initial and normal travel speeds differing, travel_to_xyz() reaching its
final branch: the old belt writer selected the initial-layer speed, the new
writer selects the normal travel speed. The pending-lift and XY-only
branches keep their previous selection.
* Belt kinematics installed without set_force_normal_lift(true) and a
non-normal lift requested: the old belt writer forced a normal lift, the new
writer can take the slope branch.
The PA-pattern generator reaches the writer through explicit travel_to_z() /
travel_to_xy(), not travel_to_xyz() or the lazy/eager lift paths, and normal
belt export installs both the plane and the forced-normal-lift policy, so
neither exception changes output produced today. They are recorded because a
future caller could reach them.
tests/fff_print/test_gcodewriter.cpp was also not compiling before this branch:
it called writer.to_machine_coords(), a method that existed only on
BeltGCodeWriter. It never surfaced because the build targets OrcaSlicer, not
all, and BUILD_TESTS defaults to OFF, so that translation unit was outside every
compile path. Fixed here; the existing 30-degree coordinate assertions are kept
verbatim as the best available regression net.

The placement clamps and the tower-approach router both stood in the bed's
bounding box for the bed itself, so on a delta or hexagonal bed the prime tower
could be parked in a corner that does not exist and the nozzle could be routed
across it. Both now test the real printable outline, slicing reports a tower
that does not fit instead of printing it off the bed, and a tower parked near an
edge is routed along the clamped side rather than falling back to a straight
line across the tower.
Also fixes the placement validation rotating the tower hull by degrees read as
radians about the plate origin, and never rotating the generated tower footprint
at all.
Six issues found by reviewing the previous commit against belt-printer, two of
them release-blocking.
Data race (high). Print::process() runs generate_support_material() for all
objects in a tbb::parallel_for, and make_belt_brim() runs at its tail, but
belt_brim_obstacles() read every OTHER object's support_layers() - which a
concurrent task may be inside clear_support_layers() deleting. That is a
use-after-free, and even when it survives, the obstacle set depends on which
object finishes first. Only this object's own supports are consulted now; they
are complete at that point. Foreign objects still contribute their slices,
which are finished and immutable before the support phase.
Apron bands dropped (high), two separate causes. An apron band prints below
its own object's first layer, but another object can already be printing at
that print_z, in which case process_layer() takes the ordinary path and never
emitted the band - the emission is now shared by both paths. Separately, a
band whose print_z matched a support layer of the SAME object was overwritten
in the print-wide merge, which keeps one record per object per z and could not
detect the collision because LayerToPrint::layer() is null for a band. The
per-object pairing loop is now a three-way merge over object, support and apron
streams, so each object contributes at most one record per z.
Multi-instance was far too strict (medium). It refused belt brim for every
multi-instance object, killing plain brim width and inner brim too, and only
warned when a leading length was set. Only movement ALONG the belt changes an
instance's belt-floor Z, so copies side by side ACROSS the belt share one set of
bands perfectly well; belt_brim_instances_compatible() now tests just that, and
the warning fires whenever the brim is actually suppressed.
Apron layer bookkeeping (medium). Apron layers count toward m_layer_count and
advance m_layer_index, but emitted no Z/height tags, left m_last_layer_z,
m_max_layer_z and m_last_height stale - so the first object layer computed its
height against a pre-apron Z - and skipped before_layer_change_gcode and
layer_change_gcode entirely. All of that now matches the ordinary path.
Obstacle cost (low). belt_brim_obstacles() ran a full-plate union per band.
A bounding-box pre-filter drops non-overlapping objects before materialising any
polygon, and the union is skipped for trivial inputs.
Deliberately unchanged: every apron band still reports cooling layer_id 0.
CoolingBuffer uses it for the initial_layer_fan_speed override and the
close_fan_the_first_x_layers gate, and every band lies on the belt plane itself,
so it is all first-layer material by the only definition that means anything on
a belt. Numbering the bands would ramp the fan up while still printing on the
belt. Now documented at the assignment rather than left implicit.
A belt printer slices in a rotated frame, so the belt surface is a tilted
plane rather than the Z=0 bed plane. Each slicing layer touches the belt
only along a narrow strip at its leading edge - about 0.2mm at 45 degrees -
so a part's first layer is really a first line, with almost no contact patch
to hold it down while the belt drags it forward. Brim was hard-disabled on
belt printers, leaving no remedy at all.
Generate the brim on the belt plane instead. The object's belt footprint is
the union over layers of each slice clipped to that layer's contact band; the
brim is offset from it in a "flattened" frame where the shear axis is
stretched by 1/cos(tilt), so ordinary Clipper offsets measure true on-belt
distance. It is emitted as cross-belt lines, one per layer band, anchored to
a fixed fraction of the band so every line shares a nozzle-to-belt clearance
and therefore comes out the same width; flow is matched to the resulting band
pitch, keeping the sheet uniform and gap-free.
Three new controls, all belt-only:
* Leading brim length - extends the brim ahead of the part along the belt,
on every downhill-facing edge of its contact area. This apron necessarily
prints BELOW the object's first layer, since layer 0 is the part's leading
contact, so it needs brim-only bands of its own.
* Extra brim width - widens the brim sideways across the belt only.
* Brim type "Leading edge only" - brim at the part's first belt contact and
nothing after it. Appended last in BrimType so no existing value shifts;
degrades to an outer brim off belt printers, with a warning.
The apron bands are lightweight records rather than a Layer subclass, so no
fabricated Layer::id() can leak into initial-layer temperature selection, the
spiral vase probe, cooling or gradual interpolation. They are generated in
posSupportMaterial because their print_z values must exist before ToolOrdering
is built at psWipeTower, and they are emitted from a short dedicated branch in
process_layer that runs before any layer pointer is dereferenced.
The footprint is closed before offsetting outwards: a belt contact patch is
often a broken-up strip, and the merged offset rings of two islands closer
than 2 x brim_width would otherwise fill the space between them - space that
lies under the part.
Also fixes a pre-existing bug where PrintObject::get_first_layer_bbox()
overwrote a valid bbox with an unassigned one on any belt printer with a brim
configured, because has_brim() was true while make_brim() returned early.
Belt brim is refused alongside the prime tower and spiral vase, and requires
one instance per PrintObject - translating an instance along the belt axis
changes its physical belt-floor Z. Untilted belt printers are unchanged: they
still get no brim, since the plate brim is emitted out of skirt_brim_groups(),
which _make_skirt() never builds for a belt printer.
Adds a printer option that picks up the new tool without a blocking temperature
wait, travels to the wipe tower, and waits there right before purging, parked
beside the tower so the ooze from the heat-up lands next to it rather than on the
model. The incoming filament's target is raised ahead of the tool change, so the
heat-up overlaps both the change itself and the travel to the tower.
Off by default, and only offered for multi-extruder printers using a Type 2 wipe
tower; the generic toolchanger profile enables it.
Brings the belt-printer work up to date with 591 upstream commits.
Conflict resolutions (12 files, 42 hunks):
- GCode.cpp: adopted upstream's per-filament/per-nozzle config refactor
(get_filament_config_index, NOZZLE_CONFIG), the extracted
generate_timelapse_gcode + farthest-point timelapse, and the
ConfigOptionFloatsNullable calibration options. Re-applied the belt
hooks on top: init_belt_writer / axis remap / FirstLayerPlane setup,
on_set_origin, the belt-corrected calib_z for the volumetric speed
tower, and path_on_first_layer (belt's per-path first-layer test) in
place of upstream's layer-index on_first_layer() in the acceleration,
jerk and overhang-detection paths. Swept upstream's new m_writer.
uses to m_writer-> since belt holds the writer by unique_ptr.
- interpolate_value_across_layers: kept upstream's banded stepping and
belt's object-Z-span ratio; dropped upstream's duplicate ratio decl.
- Plater.cpp: took upstream's guarded add_model(...) early-returns and
the VFA vfa_layer_height plumbing; kept the belt temp-tower path,
_calib_apply_belt_mode and belt_calib_flip_ringing_tower. Dropped the
VFA "cut upper" block, superseded upstream by model scaling.
- Brim.cpp: upstream's ObjectInstanceID-keyed brimAreaMap, keeping the
belt early-return.
- 3DScene.cpp: kept both the belt build-plate tilt up_direction and
upstream's per-extruder printable-height shading.
- GCodeViewer.cpp: kept upstream's dim-previous-layers setup and belt's
exemption from the same-result early return.
- TreeSupport.cpp: upstream's >= 0 roof-layer fix inside belt's
belt-floor branch.
- calib.cpp / GCode.hpp / GCodeWriter.{cpp,hpp} / Print.hpp: upstream's
additions adapted to belt's pointer-held writer and helpers.
- Custom.json: kept profile version 02.04.00.03 (belt) over upstream's
02.04.00.01; both bumped from 02.04.00.00.
Building this tree needs the wxInspector dependency, which upstream
added in the interim (python3 and wxWidgets 3.3.2 were already present
in the shared deps prefix).
LayerResult's second field is typed size_t, so std::numeric_limits::max
should also use size_t and not something related to coordinates for the
layer_id.
* Sync WipeTower from BambuStudio(through ca1881761)
* Fix post-slice self-invalidation on custom multi-extruder printers
* Complete the rib wipe tower port in WipeTower2
The rib tower is now always square (prime_tower_width is ignored, as the
GUI already implies), carries the rib origin offset like the BBL tower so
the rib tips sit inside the configured position, clamps the rib length to
the tower diagonal, and extends the ribs for short towers.
* Use the squared rib tower size in arrange estimates
estimate_wipe_tower_polygon reserved the arrange footprint and clamped the
tower X position with the raw prime_tower_width, under-reserving space
whenever the rib wall squares the tower to a different width.
* Print the WipeTower2 shell with a non-support, non-soluble filament
Like the BBL tower: the layer's sparse infill, wall, and brim go to the
first toolchange to a non-support/non-soluble filament, or are printed
with the incoming filament before any toolchange. The minimal-purge
clamp now also covers toolchanges that get no finish-layer saving.
Output is unchanged when no support/soluble filament is used.
* Port the skip-points gap wall to WipeTower2
prime_tower_skip_points was stubbed for Type2 towers: the wall call
hard-coded skip_points=false, the gap cutter received an empty vector,
and append_tcr2 never routed the entry travel. Now the toolchange entry
positions are precomputed from the finalized plan, the wall is cut open
at each entry, and the entry travel approaches around the tower bounding
box through the opening when it starts outside the tower. The geometry
helpers are re-synced with the BBL versions (add_extra_point guards,
per-point side selection). The cone wall keeps its separate path, where
the option stays inert.
Behavior change: non-BBL towers now honor the (default-on) checkbox with
gap walls and routed entries; with the option off the output is
unchanged, and the BBL tower path is untouched.
* Route the in-place toolchange tower entry through the skip-point gap
On multi-tool printers without ramming the tool changes away from the
tower and the entry travel is the tcr's own positioning move, which went
straight across the printed wall. Append the avoid-perimeter path to the
change-filament gcode instead, so the head approaches around the tower
and enters through the wall opening (append_tcr parity).
* Iron the purge start out through the skip-point gap in WipeTower2
Port the BBL tower's entry line ironing: extrude the first 3 mm of the
purge, retract, drag the nozzle 1.5x back out through the wall gap at
F600, creep back at F240 and unretract, so the toolchange start blob
ends up in the gap instead of on the wall. Fires only when the purge
starts at the left-edge entry heading right (in-place toolchangers);
SEMM ram/cooling wipes start mid-box and the priming line has no wall,
so both keep their previous output.
* Reserve WipeTower2 toolchange depth to match the printed purge
The planner reserved ramming rows gated only on enable_filament_ramming and
sized them with the SEMM 0.25s time step, while toolchange_Unload rams on
(semm && enable_filament_ramming) || filament_multitool_ramming with the
multitool time step. Disabling multitool ramming therefore left ~3 unprinted
rows per toolchange as blank bands in the tower. Without ramming the first
wipe line also needs reserved depth of its own (it no longer rides the last
ramming row), plus the y_step/2 offset the wipe start inherits from the
ramming start position - otherwise the tightened boxes truncate the ordered
purge at the box edge.
* Tile WipeTower2 purge rows contiguously across toolchange blocks
Without ramming, each purge block reserved one wipe pitch more than its
rows occupy (ceil+1 rounding plus the ram-geometry start offset), and the
wipe began a full pitch inside the block, leaving a blank band of exactly
two pitches between adjacent blocks. Plan the block as whole wipe rows,
start the first row so the row lattice continues across the block
boundary, and fill the reserved box instead of stopping at the ordered
volume, mirroring how the BBL WipeTower keeps planned depth identical to
printed rows. Ram-printing toolchanges (SEMM with ramming enabled,
multitool ramming) are unchanged.
* Scrub the WipeTower2 toolchange entry with the BBL flat-ironing spiral
The entry scrub now matches the BBL tower's toolchange_wipe_new sequence:
after the ironing drag the retracted nozzle runs a dry expanding-square
spiral centred on the wall-gap entry point before resuming the purge row.
The spiral runs whenever the gap wall is on (disable per filament via
filament_tower_ironing_area = 0); WipeTower2 no longer reads
prime_tower_flat_ironing.
* Restart the WipeTower2 wipe at the box boundary after multitool ramming
With the gap wall on a multi-tool printer, quantize the ram band up to its
whole reserved rows (as the BBL tower does for the old-tool purge) and start
CP TOOLCHANGE WIPE at the left-edge boundary on a fresh row below it instead
of continuing from wherever the ram serpentine ended. The entry scrub then
runs at the wall gap on ram toolchanges too, and the wipe box is whole rows,
so it is filled completely like the no-ram case. SEMM and skip-points-off
behavior is unchanged.
* Move the WipeTower2 wall gap to the wipe start row for ram toolchanges
* code cleanup
* Potential fix for pull request finding

On multi-tool printers without ramming the tool changes away from the
tower and the entry travel is the tcr's own positioning move, which went
straight across the printed wall. Append the avoid-perimeter path to the
change-filament gcode instead, so the head approaches around the tower
and enters through the wall opening (append_tcr parity).
When a per-layer nozzle grouping migrates a filament across nozzle
variants, the write-back turns two groups of config arrays from
filament-indexed into column-indexed: the per-variant filament options
(one column per variant a filament uses) and the merged extruder
retract overrides (resized to the column count by apply_override).
Export-path readers that still indexed them with the raw filament id
read a neighbor's column for every filament ordered after a migrating
one: toolchange/standby temperatures (M104/M109), retraction lengths
and feedrates, wipe distance, z-hop types, air-filtration keys, and -
through the Extruder's cached flow term - the extrusion E of every
move.
Now every such read resolves its column through the existing
layer-aware resolver (get_filament_config_index ->
Print::get_filament_config_indx), which returns the raw filament id
whenever no per-layer grouping result is published, so static prints
are byte-inert by construction. The Extruder itself has no layer
knowledge, so it gains an injected config column (set_config_index,
default = filament id) that the generator refreshes at the only two
resolution-changing events - layer change and writer toolchange - and
that re-syncs the cached e_per_mm3 flow term. Old-filament reads
resolve at the current layer, which is safe because the per-layer maps
are gap-filled carry-forward. Whole-array placeholder copies
(toolchange temperature overrides) are rebuilt in filament order,
mirroring the existing per-variant placeholder remap. The resolvers
move to the public section so non-friend helpers (ooze prevention) can
resolve too.
Documented, deliberately unchanged: the wipe tower's per-filament
parameter rows (no layer dimension; tower x per-layer grouping is a
follow-up), travel_slope's physical-extruder read, estimator pre-heat
bookkeeping temps, and index-0 header diagnostics.
Verification: new Extruder column-injection scenario (defaults, column
follow + flow-cache rescale, filament-indexed reads unaffected, reset
semantics) and a migrating write-back case proving the column shift for
filaments ordered after a migrator and the resolver tracking it (11 +
14 assertions); suites green (libslic3r 48998/169, fff_print 655/61);
20/20 pinned-slice byte gate bit-identical (incl. sequential repro x2
deterministic).
- the g-code writer tracks the current layer id and resolves
FILAMENT_CONFIG/NOZZLE_CONFIG (plus every non-macro variant lookup,
toolchange placeholder scalars, and the change-filament flush
overrides) through Print's per-filament, per-layer config-index
resolvers instead of the filament->extruder collapse
- update_layer_related_config refreshes the per-layer
extruder/volume/nozzle maps in the writer config;
update_placeholder_parser_with_variant_params remaps the
filament-variant arrays into filament-id space for custom g-code
(Orca's flush placeholder computation moves inside it)
- the engine's concrete per-filament volume assignment now merges into
the config write-back (the temporary hold from the producer commit
is lifted together with these consumers), and the background process
reads the computed volume map back to the plate
- append_full_config dumps the resolved filament_map_2 slots
- update_used_filament_values gains a bounds guard
- tests: per-filament Hybrid slot resolution + null-result fallback
Result: on a Hybrid extruder, each filament's features slice with its
assigned sub-nozzle's variant values (speeds, volumetric limits,
retraction). Verified on a 4-filament H2C Hybrid project: outer walls
split into three feedrate populations (30/50/200 mm/s), toolpath
geometry byte-identical, deterministic across repeated slices. All 18
non-Hybrid reference fixtures stay byte-identical except the
filament_map_2 header value now showing the real slot. Auto grouping
ties (multiple zero-flush perfect matchings) may pick a different
filament-to-nozzle isolation than other slicers; verified co-optimal.
Refactor skirt and brim ownership and emission flow
Refactor skirt and brim generation around a common object/group
ownership model.
Skirts and brims are now emitted as a coordinated preamble
(skirt -> brim -> object) instead of being generated and emitted
through multiple independent code paths.
Changes:
- Fix repeated skirt emission caused by the previous skirt state
tracking logic.
- Restore local skirt/brim ordering for per-object skirts in
By Layer mode.
- Emit brims together with their owning object or object group.
- Handle combined brims independently from skirt grouping.
- Handle draft shields through the same ownership model as skirts.
- Fix draft shield generation when skirt height is zero.
- Generate draft shields after brim geometry is known, preventing
draft shields from overlapping brims.
- Reject unsafe grouped per-object skirt configurations in
By Object mode.
- Remove legacy skirt emission paths and state-management
workarounds.
Support brim generation remains unchanged.

Conflicts resolved in src/libslic3r/GCode.cpp and src/slic3r/GUI/GUI_Factories.cpp.
GCode.cpp: combined upstream's air-filtration per-extruder gating
(activate_air_filtration_during_print / _on_completion), the new
extrusion-role-change gcode lambda, ZAA's path.z_contoured arc-fit
disable, raft-aware slow_down_layers branch, and Vec3d/Line3 ZAA
plumbing with the local belt-printer changes (path_on_first_layer,
effective_layer_index_for_point, should_disable_arc_fitting). All
auto-merged m_writer.X() calls converted to m_writer->X() to match
the local unique_ptr<GCodeWriter> refactor.
GUI_Factories.cpp: inserted brim_flow_ratio in the Support category
list and renumbered around the local build_plate_tilt_x/y entries.

- Add BeltBackTransform class that inverts the shear/scale matrix and
applies it in GCodeWriter::to_machine_coords() so G-code outputs in
the machine's physical coordinate space, gated by new
belt_gcode_back_transform config option
- Extend belt floor clipping to all three tree support pipelines
(Prusa-style, Orca organic, TreeModelVolumes) with per-layer polygon
clipping, anti-overhang integration, and belt raft extension layers
- Fix tree drop_nodes() belt termination, organic support global Z
offset, collision calculation index bug, and first-layer brim/empty
layer checks for belt printers
two-shot - first build built but didn't plumb to UI. Woah.
add pre-slice axis remap, because Y needs to be Z
going to change tactic and move based on bbox min
switch to per axis snapping
per axis swap snap now per object
build plate tilt wasn't invalidating slicer settings
support upper bound now correct, need to get lower bound corrected
axis swapped support termination corrected
Z Shear works with and without pre-slice remap now
- Handle z contouring in variable speed flow when emitting GCode
- Add logic to restore nominnal z height for regular extrusions
- preserve z_contoured flag when splitting extrusion paths
Previously, wipe tower behavior was determined by checking if the printer
was a QIDI vendor. This introduces a configurable enum (Type 1 / Type 2)
so any printer can select its wipe tower implementation. BBL printers
remain hardcoded to Type 1. Qidi profiles default to Type 1.
print_machine_envelope() used get_extruder_id(extruder_id)*2 to index
machine limit arrays that only hold [Normal, Stealth] (2 entries).
For multi-extruder setups this went out-of-bounds, causing wrong M201/M203
values in the G-code which then override the estimator's correct limits.
Same class of bug as c6d1c11ebb but on the G-code writer side.
Changes:
- Remove unused extruder_id param from print_machine_envelope()
- Use .values.front() for M201/M203, matching M204/M205 in same function
- Change get_option_value() fallback from .back() to .front() so any
future out-of-bounds index returns Normal mode instead of Stealth
Wipe tower interface features and preheat fixes
Fresh PR branch rebuilt on upstream/main (squash of origin/BBL-studio-wipe-tower-merge) to avoid merge-history issues.
Port Z Anti-Aliasing from BambuStudio-ZAA (https://github.com/adob/BambuStudio-ZAA)
to OrcaSlicer. ZAA eliminates stair-stepping on curved and sloped top surfaces
by raycasting each extrusion point against the original 3D mesh and micro-adjusting
Z height to follow the actual surface geometry.
Key changes:
- Add ContourZ.cpp raycasting algorithm (~330 lines)
- Extend geometry with 3D support (Point3, Line3, Polyline3, MultiPoint3)
- Template arc fitting for 2D/3D compatibility
- Change ExtrusionPath::polyline from Polyline to Polyline3
- Add 5 ZAA config options (zaa_enabled, zaa_min_z, etc.)
- Add posContouring pipeline step in PrintObject
- Update GCode writer for 3D coordinate output
- Add ZAA settings UI in Print Settings > Quality
- Add docs/ZAA.md with usage and implementation details
ZAA is opt-in and disabled by default. When disabled, the slicing pipeline
is unchanged.
