Tommaso's decision (snaporca-x0kd): face orientation is hardwired perception -- a toddler reads
a face's roll and verse with no instruction -- so the connector is a face by default and the
conventional disc + roll quadrant stays, selectable, for users who expect it.
Preferences > Control > Camera > "Draw mate connectors as a face", default ON, key
design_connector_face_glyph. Read every frame rather than latched, so toggling takes effect on
the next repaint -- a look you cannot A/B without restarting will not get compared. Verified on
the rig: unchecking it switches the viewport to the disc live, no restart.
WHY A RELIEF AND NOT A DRAWING. A flat face in the connector's plane foreshortens by
sin(elevation) and collapses at a grazing view exactly like the quadrant it replaces -- measured,
the quadrant falls 89 -> 20 -> 3 -> 0 lit pixels from 47 degrees to edge-on. The relief does not:
its silhouette carries the information. So the glyph is a small shaded solid, painter-sorted,
lambert-shaded against a light fixed in CAMERA space so orbiting does not swing the shading.
THE MUZZLE, AND THE MISTAKE THAT NEARLY LOST IT. It is the only feature standing along +Z, so it
says which way the connector points and it is all that survives edge-on. Two errors on the way:
1. I built its footprint from height*tan(draft) and got a needle. The real base OVERHANGS the
crest at both ends (0.062 nose, 0.034 tail) and that overhang is what makes it a wedge. Base
now lifted straight off the mesh.
2. Worse, I chased fidelity. Scaled honestly the ridge is 11.3 mm on an 83.3 mm face -- 13.6 %
of the width -- and at 22-48 px that is a scratch. Tommaso looked at it and could not find
the muzzle at all, which is the only test that counts. A glyph is a symbol, not a scale
model, so it now gets two deliberate exaggerations, and COLOUR does most of the work:
muzzle share of lit pixels at 90/16/6 deg -- body tone 14.8/11.3/17.5 %, accent gold
18.3/19.2/23.9 %, accent gold at 1.8x width 23.5/25.2/31.2 %.
The accent is the same gold the disc spends on its roll quadrant, so it stays this tab's "here
is the direction that matters" colour. Polarity is still on the Z arrow's head; nothing collides.
A connector whose ROLL COULD NOT BE DERIVED keeps the disc treatment whatever the preference says.
A face asserts a definite orientation, and asserting one for a roll that was never derived is the
same confident lie that got billboarding rejected.
Geometry is emitted from the part by docs/design/mate-connectors/emit_glyph_table.py, not
hand-drawn, so glyph and printed connector cannot drift: 12-vertex outline, two eyes, chin bar,
cheek dot, and the snout wedge. Crest 29.0 mm / 6.58 mm drop / 13.1 deg against the review's
28.3 / 6.61 / 13.1 on the B-rep.
Also fixes extract_outline.py, which walked w.Edges: OCC returns them in storage order, not ring
order, ignoring per-edge orientation, so the outline was scrambled -- 45 points and perimeter
6.380 where a clean ring gives 31 and 3.335. Every measurement in the design notes was re-run.
The correction reversed one earlier finding: handedness does NOT read on its own (5.4/8.0/9.1 %
different from its mirror, not the 32-35 % the scrambled ring produced), so the cheek dot is
required rather than merely nice.
RIG-VERIFIED on Xvfb :12 against a 60x40x10 box with a face+edge connector: the face renders with
both eyes, ears, chin bar, cheek dot and a gold muzzle standing proud; the Z arrow degenerates to
its ring when viewed down the axis; and the preference switches to the disc live.

Replace per-printer auto-activation
(is_current_printer_agent_plugin)
with a global experimental AppConfig
toggle, default off: legacy
print-host behavior is unchanged
until the user opts in. The toggle
drives device-tab routing, print
button defaults, connect-button
visibility and sidebar layout, and
dedups machine-select dialog opens.
Catches the fork up from 449a4cf9fc (2026-06-28) to d6cb667b89 (2026-07-24).
Upstream touched 2326 files; 17 of them overlap the 164 this branch touches.
16 of the 17 auto-merged, including all three CMakeLists.txt, the build_all.yml
CI workflow, and every GUI file. The CAD core never conflicts: CadDocument,
SketchEngine, SketchSolver, McpControl and test_caddocument are files this fork
adds, so upstream does not touch them.
The one conflict, tests/libslic3r/test_3mf.cpp, was purely additive in all three
hunks and is resolved as a union: our test pinning that store_bbs_3mf embeds the
CAD recipe as Metadata/SnapOrca_cad.bin, upstream's multi-nozzle plate-metadata
round-trip tests, and both sets of includes. All three were verified present
after resolution rather than assumed.
NOT BUILD-VERIFIED, for a reason that predates this merge and is not caused by
it: this fork cannot be configured on nativedev at all. Its CMakeLists has
required Eigen3 5.0.1 since before the merge (line 592 pre-merge), while the
only deps image on the machine is snaporca-deps, built for snaporca's
find_package(Eigen3 3.3). CMake fails at configure, so nothing compiles.
That means this fork's Catch2 suite has never run. Every "suite green" figure
recorded for M1-M8 was snaporca's suite; the ports were verified by patch-apply
plus the CAD sources being byte-identical to snaporca's. Building an orca_cad
deps image with Eigen 5.0.1 is what would finally close that gap.
Pre-merge state is preserved at branch cad-mainline-pre-upstream-2026-07-25
(30d54f0074).

The stored plug-in identity is now the AA.BB.CC series (matching BambuStudio)
rather than the full build version, so the meaningless 4th build digit stops
driving config, the whitelist, filenames, and the version selector. This fixes
the macOS "can't switch to an older build" bug: the cloud endpoint is
series-keyed and only ever serves a series' newest build, so downgrade-by-
download was impossible and the download silently adopted the latest.
A startup migration normalizes an existing full-version config and file name to
the series form with no re-download, the loader resolves a bare series to the
newest same-series build on disk, and user-provided custom-named plug-ins
(libbambu_networking_02.08.01_custom.*) are still enumerated and loaded.
Discovered builds were inserted positionally behind the whitelist entry they
anchored to, so an OTA-installed 02.08.01.53 listed below 02.08.01.52. The list
is now built by appending and sorting once, which also drops the per-entry
insertion scans.
"(installed)" tested whether the library was present on disk, so it marked every
version ever selected - switching leaves the previous library in place. The flag
is now is_loaded, resolved against the plug-in actually loaded, and the two
combo populators share one label helper.
Romanian was absent from this fork and from upstream, so there was no
catalog to reuse. Machine-translated with a local qwen3.6 model against the
union of both forks' .pot files; 99.0% coverage (5472 singular + 9 plural).
Header credits it as machine translation pending native review.
Registering wxLANGUAGE_ROMANIAN in supported_languages[] is what actually
exposes the language: the Preferences dropdown filters the installed
dictionaries against that allowlist, so a valid .mo alone would ship a
language nobody could select.
Translations that failed to preserve their printf/boost placeholders were
left empty rather than shipped, since msgfmt --check-format is fatal in
run_gettext.sh and would break the build on all three platforms. Those 57
strings fall back to English. Verified: run_gettext.sh exits 0 and the
compiled catalog has 0 placeholder mismatches.

* Fix reload from disk for STEP models after reopening a project (#12992)
reload_from_disk matched reloaded source volumes with an exact
source.input_file string comparison. After a project is saved and
reopened, the stored source path is only the filename (the default,
non-full-path save) while a freshly re-imported volume carries a full
path, so the comparison never matched: reload fell into fail_list and
the "locate file" dialog was effectively useless for STEP models.
Fall back to a case-insensitive filename comparison when the exact
paths differ, so the existing same-folder source lookup (and the
locate dialog) can reload the model. Projects that stored absolute
source paths still match exactly as before; no 3mf format change.
* Add Preferences option to store full source paths in projects
Expose the existing export_sources_full_pathnames setting (previously
only editable in the config file) as a checkbox under Preferences >
General > Project. Enabling it stores absolute source paths in saved
projects, so "Reload from disk" works when the source file is kept in
a different folder than the project (companion to #12992).
Clarify that "network plugin" now means *bambu* only and doesn't refer to orca cloud
fully differentiate the two offerings to avoid confusion especially for non Bambu users

The update check is notification-only (OrcaSlicer never auto-downloads),

the check. What changes when packaged is the new-version dialog: the
Download button is hidden, the info text asks the user to update from
the Microsoft Store, and the hyperlink / wxID_YES action opens the Store
product page instead of the GitHub release page.

* Expose Antialiasing velues
Expose Antialiasing multipliers.
Default to 4 as current implementation but enables the user to disable it to improve performante or increase sampling to improve quality.
* FXAA
* Improve descriptions
* Require restart when MSAA setting changes
Detect changes to the OpenGL MSAA (multisample anti-aliasing) preference when opening Preferences and prompt the user to restart the application to apply the change. Adds a constant key for the MSAA setting, stores the previous value, checks for changes (similar to the existing FXAA handling), and shows a warning dialog explaining the restart will close the current project without saving. If the user accepts, recreate_GUI is invoked to apply the MSAA change immediately.
* Revert "Require restart when MSAA setting changes"
This reverts commit dde134d346c3849598c91d025d2faed1b51c8a22.

- PhysicalPrinterDialog: disambiguate set_values() call with explicit
std::vector<std::string> (wxArrayString now also matches initializer list)
- Preferences: use ToStdString() instead of mb_str() for std::string comparison
- Plater: use wxString::FromUTF8() for wxArrayString constructor argument
## FIXES
• Corrects area height on windows while using 125% and 175% scaling. it
shows scrollbar when it incorrectly set. i have used directly size of
combobox this time instead static number
## IMPROVEMENTS
• Removes restriction for restarting orca when setting changed
This PR adds a new filament sync mode setting for device-based filament synchronization.
Users can now choose between syncing both filament preset + color (current behavior) or syncing color only, so calibrated local filament profiles are preserved while still updating slot colors from the printer.
It also includes small UI improvements for the new preference entry and sync status messaging.
