A project no longer reads texture files from outside its archive, and a
malformed value or layer slot drops only the texture layers instead of
failing the whole load. Copies of an object that share a mesh keep their
own texture paint when saved, and projects without texture paint no
longer use extra memory to load.
An image laid onto a model came out upside down under the ordinary box
(tri-planar) projection, and on three of a cube's six faces it was also
mirrored left to right, which reads as a 180 degree rotation.
DecodedHeightTexture::sample() defines v = 0 as the height map's first
pixel row, i.e. its top. Every projection built v from world +Z, so v
grew upward and the image landed bottom row up. The one path that was
already right is the projective "project from view" matrix, which
measures window y downward.
Both halves of the box basis were wrong:
- v is now negated on all three world planes, so the top of an image
sits at the top of the model.
- u now carries a sign for the side of the plane the face is on, chosen
so that u x v == -normal. Without it the two faces sharing a plane get
one u and one of them is mirrored. The sign flips exactly where that
plane's blend weight (the fourth power of a normal component) reaches
zero, so the blended tri-planar sum stays continuous and the hard axis
switch the old code removed does not come back.
The same v convention was missing from the other mapping modes:
cylindrical (which also had a left handed frame, right x up rather than
up x right, so its wrap ran mirrored), spherical, the affine branch of
view projection, and the flat chart fallback of the LSCM unwrap, which
now reuses the box basis so a cube face unwraps to the orientation
tri-planar would have given it.
The basis table is exported as box_projection_axes() and the gizmo's
adjust_tangent_basis() calls it instead of restating it, so the
placement ring and offset handle cannot drift from the bake. All four
preview shaders get the matching change, including projection_axes(),
whose tangent and bitangent have to flip with the coordinate or the
relief shading inverts.
Re-baking an existing project now places its texture upright, so it will
differ from how it looked before. Geometry already baked into a 3mf is
untouched, so nothing changes until the user re-bakes.
Verified by measuring the sampled texture row and column against world
position for every mapping mode on all six faces of a cube, and by a
full bake of a quadrant coded image, which lands each quadrant within
1e-3 mm of its expected depth.
The green highlight and tint no longer cover a colour preview, and return while a stroke is
painted. The Fast view also keeps the other parts of a multi-part object.
The project carried the layer stack but not the user's place in it: a reopened
project landed on slot 0 in Standard, whatever they had been editing. The active
layer and Standard/Pro now live on the volume, next to the rest of its options,
and come back with it. Docked/undocked goes to the application config instead -
it describes the user's window, not the model, so opening someone else's project
must not move their panel.
A layer whose image_data was empty at save time was written with no texture and
came back with none. It now falls back to the file the layer came from, which the
importer put in the user's own texture library, so a project reopened on the same
machine keeps its pixels.
The texture is always stored as .png: the importer converts whatever the user
picked, so the extension was being taken from a name that no longer described the
bytes.
Also adds v2_flip_edges to the cereal field list, which the undo stack was
silently dropping.
Make the connected-net layout affordable on a dense patch
Laying a patch out as a connected net cost ~175 ms on a 42k-triangle patch,
against ~21 ms for the unwrap it works from, and the gizmo asks for it on every
preview, overlay and bake. Measured on a real project the grid behind it ran
~19 million triangle-pair tests per net, nearly all of them misses: a cell
holds every triangle whose box touches it, and a candidate really meets a
couple of them.
Keep a bounding box with each stored triangle and answer those misses with four
comparisons instead of a full intersection. The net drops to ~53 ms with
identical output - the seam metrics on the test project did not move by one.
Two further attempts were measured and dropped, and are recorded in the comment
so they are not tried again: a free-space pre-check per chart came out slower,
because a folded chart lands against the net by construction and the cells
under it are occupied anyway, and splitting the boxes into their own array for
locality lost more to growing two vectors per bucket than it gained.
Also pick a pair's fold line from the longest boundary they share rather than
whichever edge came first, and grow the net strongest-adjacency-first rather
than breadth-first by area. Only the fold a chart is reached by comes out
matching, so a chart claimed across a short boundary leaves the long one it
shared with its true neighbour torn.
texture_unwrap_dump reports an unwrap from a saved project - charts, their
topology, folded triangles, where the texture is discontinuous and how long
those seams are. All of the above was found with it, and it is what keeps a
claim about this code honest; reading the 3D view and guessing had produced
three wrong diagnoses in a row.
* Remove Unused Project Includes and Forward-Declare Where a Type Is Only Referenced
Generated with include-what-you-use and applied conservatively. Only OrcaSlicer's own headers, the ones under src/ and tests/, are removed or forward-declared; standard-library and third-party includes are left alone. An include is removed only when both the Release and the Debug configuration leave it unused, never from inside a conditional block, and never from a file with platform-specific blocks, which only gain includes. Files whose only use of a header sits behind a feature or debug macro (libvgcode's OpenGL ES and marker code, the ARACHNE/TESTS_EXPORT_SVGS debug output) keep their includes.
clonable_ptr.hpp gains #pragma once; it had no include guard and was only safe while Config.hpp was its sole includer.
* Remove Unused Project Includes From Files With Platform-Specific Code
A Linux include-what-you-use run cannot see the code inside _WIN32, __APPLE__ or __linux__ blocks, so its verdict is only taken where nothing the removed header declares, directly or through what it includes, is named inside those blocks. Removals also have to hold in both the Release and Debug configuration and never touch a line inside a conditional block.
* Restore the libslic3r Precompiled Header and Direct Includes Lost in the Platform Pass
The platform-file pass treated pchheader.hpp as an ordinary header and
emptied it, and left GUI_Preview.hpp and 14 other files relying on
headers they no longer reached directly.
* Restore MainFrame.hpp in ParamsDialog.cpp for the Windows-Only Reparent Call
* Include Headers That Files Reached Through Ones the Cleanup Removed
* Drop Includes Duplicated by the Cleanup or by Main's Own Additions
* Leave PreciseSeam.cpp as Main Has It After the Precise Seam Rework
A painted relief did not survive closing the project: nothing about the feature
was written to the .3mf, so the layers, their textures and the paint mask were
all lost on save. The layer struct's cereal save()/load() serve the undo/redo
stack only, which is one session and one binary stream.
Write the layer stack and the per-volume options as JSON in the archive, and
each layer's texture as the image file it was loaded from, both referenced by
path - the same split EmbossShape already makes for its SVG. The image stays
out of the XML deliberately: it is binary and routinely megabytes, and base64
in an attribute would bloat the one file every reader parses just to list the
objects. JSON rather than the cereal stream next to it because that one is
positional and unversioned, which would make every future field a
project-breaking change; an unknown key is ignored and a missing one keeps its
default, so a project written by either side keeps loading.
The paint masks go in as one attribute per layer slot, mirroring paint_color.
Older readers ignore attributes they do not know, so a project written here
still opens in a build without the feature - it loses the relief, which is all
it could have done with it anyway.
The layers are restored while the volume is being built rather than after the
archive is walked: volumes are constructed only once the whole archive has been
read, so a hook placed after the walk ran before any volume existed and
restored nothing.
* Add Missing Includes Across src/libslic3r
Every libslic3r source and header now directly includes the headers declaring what it uses, rather than relying on the precompiled header or transitive includes. Generated with clang-tidy misc-include-cleaner, with libslic3r headers spelled libslic3r/... so they resolve outside the library's private include paths. MultiMaterialSegmentation.hpp, Support/SupportParameters.hpp and Format/STEP.hpp are made self-contained by hand.
* Make the libslic3r Headers Compile on Their Own
Each now includes, or forward-declares, what it uses instead of relying on what its includers happened to include first. Left out: I18N.hpp, which errors on purpose when included from GUI code, and VoxelizeCSGMesh.hpp and SLA/bicubic.h, which nothing includes and which no longer compile at all.
* Add the Includes Missing From the Hand-Fixed libslic3r Headers
clang-tidy would not edit these headers while they failed to compile on their own, so the first pass skipped them. With the headers now self-contained, a second pass adds the rest.
* Keep Windows Setup Ahead of the Added libslic3r Includes
Print.cpp and Thread.cpp open with a _WIN32 block that has to come first; without the precompiled header, Print.cpp otherwise reaches windows.h through OCCT with NONLS defined and boost/regex fails. OpenVDBUtils.cpp and SLA/SupportTreeBuilder.cpp had includes inside #ifndef NOMINMAX, which libslic3r defines on Windows, so those were skipped there. .clang-tidy also ignores the MSVC STL and UCRT internals, Boost.Multiprecision's fwd.hpp and CPython's Windows include directory.
* Re-Add libslic3r Includes After the Clipper2 2.0.1 Migration
Rebasing onto main took main's version of the files the Clipper2 migration rewrote, so their added includes are restored here, along with includes for main's new code. Clipper2's individual headers are now ignored by clang-tidy: they only build the Z variant through clipper2_z.hpp, which defines USINGZ first, so including clipper.core.h and the like directly broke ClipperZUtils.cpp.
Refinement now tapers off away from the paint, and the unpainted surface is kept out of
simplification, so what one bake leaves unpainted is still the model's own triangles when a later
bake paints there. A second bake used to refine the slivers and long triangles the first one left
around its stroke, and came out many times denser, with walls off the texture's lines.
Meeting the triangle budget by merging flat faces alone no longer raises the warning, and the
warning now quotes the budget instead of the triangle count left after the flat faces were merged.
texture_displacement_patch_frame picks the world axis least aligned with
the patch's average normal. With no patch there is no normal either, and
the axis came out of the +Z fallback for it - so it was +X, while its
test asked for the upright frame the fallback is meant to give. An empty
patch now answers +Z outright.
Nothing removed the even mesh over a texture's flat parts unless the
budget was lowered until simplification had to run. Collapses stay under
a thirty-second of the resolution: on the test map 387584 -> 369876
triangles, with the print unchanged (0.02% of the extrusion).
An earlier attempt was reverted for a 21% heavier result. That was the
colour despeckle switching itself off, not the collapsing: it keyed off
the face parent map, which any collapse empties.
Relief preserved from an earlier bake is counted on top of the budget
instead of eating into it: baking a second area went from ~214 k
triangles to the ~1000 k it was given.
When the resolution needs more triangles than the budget allows, it is
said before the bake under Resolution and again afterwards.
- Bake: each layer is sampled only on its own painted area; analytic
projections used to stack every layer over every painted region, so the
top layer's texture showed on all of them (colour sampler too)
- Auto resolution follows the texture's texel size and sharpness again
- Unwrap: charts cut by each face's own normal (a cube gives 6 islands, not
12 triangles); non-disk charts (tubes, closed shells) are split until they
flatten; connected nets test real triangle overlap, grow from the largest
chart and are packed side by side
- UV edits are stored per unwrapped copy, so dragging a seam vertex no
longer moves its copies in neighbouring islands
- UV pane: tool strip with unwrap settings moved in from the panel, sharp
HiDPI icons, clearer island/edge/selection drawing with hover, texture
picker from the thumbnail, texture no longer lost on reopen (GL state
from the 3D view, background upload retries)
- Panel: whole-model select/erase as icons in the tools row; inactive
layers' paint shown muted; colour textures shown in colour in the picker
- Built-in displacement texture library
- Tests for unwrap segmentation, connected nets, UV edits and per-layer
sampling
Colour height maps now displace the same way up as grayscale ones. A
truncated or corrupt PNG in the texture folder or a project file now
loads as an empty texture instead of aborting the app, and a 16-bit
colour PNG is converted on load rather than displacing as noise.
