enable_prime_tower stays on for any multi-filament project, but a belt
printer never prints the classic tower and the belt purge prism is an
ordinary object that never takes a brim, so every brim on a multi-filament
belt print was refused for nothing.
Raised in Hanif Koh's review of #14394.
validate() skipped the build-volume height check whenever the machine-frame
transform was active, which is every shipped belt profile, so a 400 mm
object passed on a 300 mm printable_height. The transform only changes how
the height is written to G-code; the clearance check from f682ab5cd3
applies regardless.
Raised in Hanif Koh's review of #14394.
Drops the [BELT-DEBUG], [BELTRACE], [BELT-CALIB] and [BELT-PREVIEW] log
lines, the SLIC3R_BELT_DIAGNOSTIC_LOG blocks, and the counters and
temporaries that existed only to feed them. Six of the purge tower lines
logged at warning level, which is Orca's default, on every plan. Raised in
Hanif Koh's review of #14394.
preslice_remap_*, preslice_remap_global and gcode_remap_* describe the
printer's kinematics and are set once by its profile. A wrong value sends
the gantry outside the machine (a user preset with the pre-slice remap in
place of the G-code remap emitted gantry moves to Y=646 mm), so they are no
longer offered in Expert mode.
On a belt printer a lift is a move along the belt axis (0.4 mm / sin 45 =
0.57 mm of belt travel out and back on every hop), not a lift away from the
part. The three belt printer bases now ship z_hop 0, the IR3 V2 leaf no
longer restates 0.4, and the BabyBelt Pro and IR3 V2 filaments stop
overriding the printer with filament_z_hop 0.4. The option stays editable.
PartPlate's containment tests treat the plate as open along Y on a belt printer with
belt_printer_infinite_y, so a long part is no longer flagged outside the plate in Prepare
while the slicer and the G-code checks accept it. The check reads the printer preset
through the app object, which does not exist headlessly, so it is guarded on the plater.
The prism's generator already sets no_brim; PrintObject::has_belt_brim() now also ignores
any brim setting on the prism (belt_purge_tower_object), so a brim on the parts beside it
never blocks purging.
ToolOrdering::has_wipe_tower() reads the first layer's flag. On a belt the first layer may
be a brim apron band, which carries neither object nor support and never gets the flag, so
with a brim the purge plan returned early and nothing was purged. Scan the layers for a
change.
With top_shell_layers = 0 the `top` vector is never filled and erasing its begin() was
undefined (found by fuzzing on a painted object dropped below the plate).
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.
Found by fuzzing the headless slicer:
- A BBS-style 3MF without Metadata/project_settings.config segfaulted the CLI silently on
the missing printable_height option.
- A project saved with fewer filaments (or filament groups) than --load-filaments overran
the filament variant tables (segfault in the variant match) and then hit an uncaught
ConfigurationError from set_with_restore_2 (std::terminate). The tables are regenerated
for the filaments the project did not know about, the destination vectors grown first
(only from a non-empty source), the match bounded, and a failure becomes a CLI config
error.
A 3MF vertex with a nan/inf coordinate was accepted by both parsers and crashed qhull in
ModelVolume's convex hull while the file was still loading. Both vertex handlers refuse it,
and volume generation checks again whichever parser produced the geometry. The main
parser's _stop_object_xml_parser keeps a message a handler already set.
The default 0.4 mm z-hop is a 0.57 mm move along the belt axis and its
return tripped the back-step check. Shipped belt profiles print without a
z-hop, so the test does too.
check_multi_extruder_gcode_valid() compares each object's max Z with
printable_height. On a belt printer machine Z is belt travel (a 3DBenchy
on the BabyBelt Pro runs from Z=197 to Z=309 on a 69 mm printable_height),
so every belt export set the over-height error bit and the CLI refused the
plate with -102 "G-code in unprintable area". The preview already skips its
ToolHeightOutside warning for the same reason; the export check now does
too. The XY printable-area check is unchanged.
The header tags lost their belt_ prefix in the Part 3.2 rename (20
characters now), but the parser still skipped 25, so every axis read as
pos_x. Found in Hanif Koh's review of #14394.
A scarf joint begins one layer height below the current layer and ramps
up along the wall. On a tilted belt that start is a step backwards along
the belt axis, into the previous layer's wall at the seam: 0.283 mm per
0.2 mm layer at 45 degrees. With an aligned seam the nozzle rams the same
spot on every layer. A BabyBelt Pro benchy with seam_slope_type=external
showed 601 such back-steps from layer 107 on, and in the field the belt
"jumped backwards" and the head knocked the part loose.
Belt printers now skip the scarf in GCode::extrude_loop, and the process
tab greys the scarf controls out for them, as it already does for arc
fitting. The regression test slices a cube on a belt with the scarf
enabled and checks the belt axis never steps back by a layer pitch.
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.
The lift, speed and cached-extruder members now live in the protected section ahead of the private ones; list their initializers first so the list reads in construction order. No behaviour change.
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.
The bed gravity arrow, volume rendering and the painter/support gizmos each rebuilt
the tilt up-vector from build_plate_tilt_x/y; use one helper that also tolerates
presets without the keys.
Print::has_wipe_tower() is always false for belt printers, but CLI arrange, plate checks and the pre-slice tower clamp still reserved a phantom tower footprint and wrote a clamped wipe_tower_x/y into the config.
Extension layers were all created with id 0, so every one of them could be taken for the first layer by id-only checks (ooze-prevention standby temperature, cached layer ids). Renumber the support layers after inserting them.
gcode_back_transform, first_layer_plane* and belt_printer_infinite_y fell through to invalidate_all_steps(), which re-ran tool ordering, skirt/brim and G-code export on toggles that only affect G-code export.
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.
toggle_options() now runs on every value change and mode switch; rebuild the
brim_type choices only when the leading-edge entry has to be added or removed.
Every printer's config block lists belt_slice_rotation_angle (default 45), so the processor marked all G-code as belt G-code: imported flat G-code got the belt view on a belt printer, and the belt-only Z handling in the processor ran for non-belt prints whose config block precedes the body. Take the angle only from outside the config block, where only the belt header writes it.
A 90 degree tilt has no finite gravity drift per layer, so the option range
now stops at 89 degrees, matching the cap applied by the support generators.
The three support generators each computed lh * tan(tilt), which overflows
coord_t at 90 degrees and flips sign beyond it (belt sync can write up to
180). One helper now returns the tilt slope with the tilt capped at 89 degrees.
Painted support/seam facets, support volumes, seam occlusion, MMU and fuzzy skin painting (top/bottom
and side facets) and the adaptive infill octree used trafo_centered(), or trafo() with a centre-offset
shift, while the layers were sliced with the belt rotation, remap and Z lift; they now share
PrintObject::trafo_sliced().
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.
build_plate_tilt_x/y are printer-preset keys; listing them in the per-object
frequent-settings and object-table bundles stored ignored values in object
configs and crashed the object table on the process config lookup.
Merge origin/main (00429da739) into belt-printer.
Conflicts resolved:
- src/CMakeLists.txt: keep both wxInspector workarounds.
- GCodeProcessor.cpp: keep the belt compare_pos / z_for_height lines.
- PrintObjectSlice.cpp: the belt bbox-Z guard also covers main's
printable_region_ids bookkeeping.
- TreeSupport.cpp: the belt-floor check runs before main's PendingNode
queueing.
- Tab.hpp: keep the belt fields, drop the removed upload description
fields.
- tests/libslic3r/CMakeLists.txt: keep both test files.
Also included:
- eSUN PLA belt presets declare their own filament_id (OFkrxQC4) and
scripts/filament_id_snapshot.json is regenerated, as main's filament_id
check requires.
- Custom.json version bumped to 02.04.00.05 so the belt entries reach
existing installs.
- Fix the ambiguous WithinRel call in the belt apron width test, which
otherwise breaks the fff_print build.
A valid mixed filament already slices the same on the CLI as in the GUI;
these are the places where the CLI still skipped a rule the GUI applies.
- Keep the prime tower when a mixed filament is used, even if every
--load-filaments preset is the same. A mixed filament swaps between its
components every layer, so turning the tower off left the swaps with
nothing to purge on.
- Leave a mixed slot's row and column of the flush matrix at zero when
--filament-colour triggers a recompute, as the GUI does; a mixed slot
never reaches a nozzle.
- Refuse a mixed slot that has no filament of its own. Feature filament
ids aimed at it were past the filament count, got reset to filament 1
and the model silently printed in one colour.
- Refuse a plate that uses a mixed filament whose components are
different filament types, the type half of the GUI's
Sidebar::has_broken_mixed_filament. Missing or out-of-range components
are already rejected for the whole project by validate().
get_extruders_under_cli gains an expand_mixed_slots flag so the gate
can see mixed slots rather than their components; existing callers
keep the expanded list.
Both refusals exit with the new CLI_MIXED_FILAMENT_INVALID (-69).
update_values_to_printer_extruders_for_multiple_filaments picks each
filament's value from the flattened (filament x variant) columns of every
per-filament variant option. When a column index fell past the end of the
option's values, it skipped that filament and left the zero the output
vector was created with.
The GUI always hands this function full columns, but the CLI does not:
- a CLI override of a single value, such as --nozzle-temperature=211 on a
four-filament project, came out as 211,0,0,0, so three filaments would
print at 0 C;
- loading fewer filament presets than the project has filaments left the
remaining filaments' columns missing, so filament_cooling_before_tower
came out as 10,10,0,0 and filament_ramming_volumetric_speed as -1,-1,0,0.
An out-of-range column now keeps the option's first value, the fallback
get_at() and the sibling gather step already use. The seven per-type copies
of the loop are replaced by that same gather_option_values helper, moved
above the function; it now takes its caller's name for its log lines. An
empty option, which has no first value, is given one registered default per
filament first; it used to be replaced with zeros.
On a partial load a filament whose preset was not loaded takes the first
filament's value rather than its own preset's, which the CLI does not load;
for the options seen in practice those agree.

* CLI: record command-line overrides in different_settings_to_system
Settings passed on the command line (--sparse-infill-density 25% ...) override
the loaded presets when m_extra_config is applied to m_print_config, but nothing
recorded them in different_settings_to_system. The exported project therefore
carried the new value with no mark that it was modified, and re-opening it in the
GUI reverted it to the system preset's value -- the same failure the preset-leaf
diff fixes for user presets, via a different source of override.
The key set comes from m_config, not m_extra_config. read_cli() puts only what the
user typed into m_config and setup() adds nothing but CLI-own defaults (none of
the keys run() materialises there is a preset option), whereas the CLI writes its
own values into m_extra_config (has_filament_switcher, filament_colour,
filament_map ...), which must not be reported as user overrides.
Values are snapshotted just before the apply and only keys the override actually
changed are recorded: a typed value equal to the loaded one modifies nothing, and
listing it would read as a spurious difference against what the GUI writes. Each
key lands in the column(s) whose preset type owns it -- process, every filament,
printer -- and a key already present is not duplicated. Keys no preset owns
(curr_bed_type, a project setting) land nowhere, as in the GUI.
Follow-up to #15595, split out at review.
* CLI: judge command-line overrides the way the value is read
Review follow-ups on the override recording:
- Lists were compared as whole serialized strings. read_cli() builds a fresh
one-entry list, so --nozzle-temperature 245 against 245,245,245 on a
three-filament project was recorded in every filament column although nothing
changed. Lists are now compared entry by entry with a missing entry read as the
first, as get_at() reads it (and as resize() pads).
- The log line fired for every changed key, including ones no preset owns
(curr_bed_type) and which therefore land in no column. It now fires only when a
column took the key.
- m_print_config.has(key) straight after apply(m_extra_config, true) was always
true, both configs sharing print_config_def; removed. columns.size() >= 2 also
always holds after the resize to filament_count + 2 -- different_settings_to_system
is not a CLI option, so nothing in between can shrink it -- but that rests on code
far away, so it stays a plain check rather than an assert: release builds compile
asserts out, and a _GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS build would abort on columns[0].
Deliberately NOT done: comparing a key the loaded config lacks against its
built-in default. On reopen the GUI restores an unlisted key from the SYSTEM
preset, not the default. A 3MF written before an option existed leaves it absent
here, so --sparse-infill-density 20% (the default) against a Prusa system 15% would
go unrecorded and be reverted to 15%. Absent keys stay always-recorded:
over-recording is cosmetic, under-recording loses the value. Verified that such a
key really is absent at this point, rather than filled from the system preset.
Reported by HanifKoh and raistlin7447 in review of #15642.
