The preview brim, the placement margin and the pre-generation validation
warning each decided on their own whether the tower has a Type2 cone
base, reading the wall type and cone angle three different ways. The
preview's read cast the preset's enum to ConfigOptionEnum<T>, which a
preset-shaped config never holds, so the cone base was never previewed.
estimate_wipe_tower_first_layer_outline now answers that question once,
beside the footprint estimate, from the config and the resolved planner;
all three sites take the outline from it. The libslic3r case reads the
outline off a preset-shaped config, where the old cast came back empty.
Smooth timelapse no longer charges a prime volume it does not purge. A
tower printed with no tool change is exactly the idle depth: the
stability minimum for Type2, the wrapping detection depth for Type1.
Charging a full prime_volume on top made the previewed and arranged
tower deeper than the one that is printed.
The Type2 half of "a tool change reserves a tower whatever the purge
volumes resolve to" arrives with the base commit; here it only has to
survive the planner split, since Type1 already reserves per filament.
The wipe tower filament only joins the tool ordering when there is a
tower to join, which is the has_wipe_tower() half of the guard
Print::extruders applies.
The shared estimate reserved every tower with one volume-per-purge rule
and the stability floor. Both planners do more: WipeTower (Type1) wipes
each filament's own prime volume in whole lines, one block per
adhesiveness category sized by its worst layer, rams the leaving
filament at every nozzle change, and squares a rib tower from the
planned depth; WipeTower2 (Type2) spaces its lines by
wipe_tower_extra_spacing, not the Type1-only infill gap, and its extra
flow cancels out of the depth. Both extend the ribs rather than the body
below the stability minimum, size every layer including a thinner first
one, and lay the brim in whole loops, WipeTower reporting half a spacing
of line width on top.
All of that now lives in estimate_wipe_tower_footprint, fed the planner
(resolve_wipe_tower_type mirrors Print::wipe_tower_type and the CLI's
Bambu Lab detection) and the filament ids rather than a count. Print
passes its own tool set; the PartPlate adapter derives the plate's ids
from the passed config and treats an explicit count as a floor, so the
CLI's count-only callers size per filament too. The placement clamp also
reserves a Type2 cone's base bulge, which the body box does not cover.
The planner-mirroring helpers sit beside the planners in WipeTower and
WipeTower2 so the two stay in sync; the libslic3r cases pin them to
footprints measured from generated G-code.
A raft is not a reason to reserve a tower. Print::apply runs
normalize_fdm_2, which clears enable_prime_tower for a plate that purges
one filament unless smooth timelapse or wrapping detection is on, so a
single-filament plate with a raft prints no tower at all and the estimate
was reserving bed area for one. Drop the input; need_wipe_tower is now
exactly the two exceptions normalize_fdm_2 honours, named there so the
next reason added has to be checked against it.
The GUI preview and the validation containment check each re-derived
"is a tower printed here" from the filament count instead of reading the
estimate, so both missed the towers printed with no tool change to purge
for. They now take the answer from the footprint, which is the drift this
shared estimate exists to remove. A tower that is not printed estimates to
zero, so its hull is degenerate and every check on it passes trivially -
the containment check needs no gate of its own.
WipeTowerData::width was written only by the pre-generation estimate and
left at zero for the whole post-generation life of the Print, while its
neighbour depth held the real value. Set it from the generator in both
branches.
The plate's height scan transformed every model part's full mesh per
instance on each scene reload, discarding all but the z extent. The
cached convex hull has the same z extent.
A plate loaded from a sliced .gcode.3mf holds no objects and its filaments
live in slice_filaments_info; the config-taking get_extruders overload
returned an empty list for it, which sized the tower for a placeholder two
filaments. It now answers the way the wx overload does, without reaching
the plater.
Also drop estimate_wipe_tower_size, which has no callers.
