- 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
- Fix support clipping z-shift calculation by removing coordinate-space
mismatch and sync belt_floor_z_shift with global_z_offset; fix
invalidation so posSupportMaterial no longer resets slicing params
- Add belt floor polygon clipping to non-organic tree support
(slim/strong/hybrid) with collision surface integration in
TreeSupportData, belt extension layers, and first-layer brim
suppression
- Add belt floor clipping to organic tree support pipeline with virtual
belt raft layers, per-layer polygons in TreeModelVolumes, and
post-generation layer trimming; fix pre-existing processing_last_mesh
bug in calculateCollision()
Fix belt floor support clipping: z-shift, invalidation, and global offset
- Fix support clipping z-shift calculation by removing coordinate-space
mismatch (raw_bounding_box min.z vs trafo_centered m_belt_min_z) and
sync belt_floor_z_shift with global_z_offset in global shear mode
- Fix invalidation so posSupportMaterial no longer resets slicing params,
preventing the exact posSlice z-shift from being overwritten by the
bounding-box approximation on support-only setting changes
- Remove double-counting of global z_offset on support layers — support
already inherits the offset from object layers during generation

UI: gray out inactive belt sub-options, rename to mesh transforms, move to Advanced
Fix mesh clipping through build plate after belt shear/scale transform
Generalize G-code viewer designed-view toggle for full belt transform
Clip support layers to transformed belt floor plane
Supports below the tilted build plate (Z = shear_factor * from_axis - min_z)
are now clipped via half-plane intersection after generation. Belt floor
parameters stored in SlicingParameters and populated in both update_slicing_parameters()
and the static slicing_parameters() overload.
Make belt G-code viewer toggle more prominent, add B keyboard shortcut
- Add separator + teal "Belt Printer" header in legend panel
- Append [B] hint to checkbox label
- Add B key shortcut in GLCanvas3D to toggle designed/machine view
- Read belt_printer_angle from loaded G-code headers to enable belt view
Add per-axis global transform option for belt printer shear
New belt_shear_{x,y,z}_global bool configs. When enabled, shear incorporates
instance shift so objects at different bed positions get position-aware
transform (Z += factor * instance_shift_on_from_axis).
Fix global shear: use layer Z offset instead of mesh transform, add config invalidation
- Global shear offset applied as post-slicing layer print_z adjustment
instead of mesh transform (which was absorbed by min_z normalization
or shifted mesh out of slice range)
- Register all belt transform options in Print::invalidate_state_by_config_options
to trigger posSlice re-slicing (the fallback only invalidated Print steps,
not PrintObject steps — belt changes had no effect without manual re-slice)
- Belt gcode remap options added to steps_gcode (gcode-export only)
- Skip empty-first-layer check for belt objects with global Z offset
WIP: split instances for global shear, relative Z offsets, debug logging
- PrintApply: when belt global mode active, prevent instance grouping by
adding unique Z perturbation to trafo — each copy becomes its own
PrintObject with independent layers
- PrintObjectSlice: compute global Z offset relative to minimum Y shift
across all PrintObjects (lowest-Y object stays at Z=0)
- Debug logging (warning level) for belt global shift values and offsets
Known issues:
- Cached posSlice results cause stale offsets when mixing copies with
individually-added objects — need to compute min baseline outside slice()
- Supports still generate to Z=0 instead of object's global Z offset
Fix global shear for copied objects: disable shared-object layer optimization
When belt global Z shear is active, each object needs unique layer Z
values based on its bed position. The shared-object optimization was
causing copies to reuse the source object's layers (and its Z offset)
instead of computing their own position-based offset.

still not quite there, I think there's a fundamental logic flaw?
hunting for bugs
finally have a functional fix
Add belt floor clipping to tree supports (organic and non-organic)
- Add belt floor polygon clipping to non-organic tree support
(slim/strong/hybrid) in draw_circles() and terminate nodes at the
belt surface instead of the horizontal build plate
- Add belt floor clipping to organic tree support pipeline with virtual
belt raft layers for sub-floor branch generation, per-layer belt
floor polygons in TreeModelVolumes, and post-generation layer trimming

prevented m_anti_overhang (support blockers) from ever being applied;
skip empty first layer check for belt printers

allow support geometry to extend to the diagonal belt surface instead
of terminating at a horizontal first layer

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.
1. Dirty flags not showing for extruder options:
2. Crash when switching to non-first extruder tabs:
3. Modifying one extruder's parameter affects other extruders:
## Summary
- Change default bed temperature type from "By First filament" to "By Highest Temp"
- Move `bed_temperature_formula` option from develop mode to advanced mode for better accessibility
- Relocate UI control from "Basic Information - Advanced" to "Multimaterial Setup" section where it's more relevant for multi-filament printing
Using the highest temperature of all printed filaments is generally safer for bed adhesion than using the first filament's temperature, especially in multi-material prints where different filaments may require different bed temperatures.

* Add custom nozzle diameter option in sidebar
Ensures that if the actual nozzle diameter is not present in the list, it is added as a custom option. This improves user experience by allowing selection of non-standard nozzle diameters.
Refactor nozzle diameter selection logic in Sidebar
Simplified the logic for updating the extruder nozzle diameter combo box by removing redundant checks and streamlining the addition of custom nozzle diameters. This improves code clarity and ensures the actual nozzle diameter from the printer config is always considered.
Co-Authored-By: yw4z <yw4z@outlook.com>
* Prevent profile switch if selected diameter matches nozzle
Adds a check in Sidebar::priv::switch_diameter to avoid switching printer profiles when the selected diameter matches the current nozzle diameter in the configuration. This prevents unnecessary profile changes and improves user experience.

## Problem
Some Creality printers (e.g. Ender-3 V3 SE) rely on metadata comments in the first lines of G-code files to display print info on the screen (estimated time, filament usage, layer height). This follows a format originally used by Cura/Creality Print:
```
;FLAVOR:Marlin
;TIME:3708.97
;Filament used:6.21m
;Layer height:0.2
```
OrcaSlicer currently has no way to write content before the `HEADER_BLOCK` in the G-code output, and does not expose `print_time_sec` or `filament_length_m` as usable placeholders. As a result, these printers show zeroed-out print info on screen.
## Changes
### 1. New placeholders (post-processing)
Added two new G-code placeholders resolved during post-processing:
- `{print_time_sec}` — total estimated print time in seconds (double)
- `{filament_length_m}` — total filament length in meters (double)
These values are only available after G-code generation, so they use inline marker replacement (`@PRINT_TIME_SEC@`, `@FILAMENT_LENGTH_M@`) that `GCodeProcessor::run_post_process()` substitutes with actual computed values — the same pattern used by existing M73 and layer count placeholders.
### 2. New "File header G-code" option (`machine_top_gcode`)
Added a new G-code field in **Printer Settings > Machine G-code** that writes content at the very top of the output file, before `HEADER_BLOCK_START`. This allows users to add firmware-specific metadata that must appear in the first lines.
### 3. Creality Ender-3 V3 SE profile update
Pre-configured the Ender-3 V3 SE profiles (all 4 nozzle variants) with a default `machine_top_gcode` value matching the Cura-compatible header format, so print info displays correctly out of the box.
# Screenshots

## Tests
- Sliced test model with Ender-3 V3 SE profile
- Verified G-code output contains correct values in first lines:
- `;TIME:` with actual print time in seconds
- `;Filament used:` with filament length in meters
- `;Layer height:` with correct layer height
- Verified `{print_time_sec}` and `{filament_length_m}` work in both Machine Start G-code and File header G-code fields
- Verified empty `machine_top_gcode` produces no extra output
- Built and tested on macOS (arm64)

# Description
When creating a new filament preset and setting the Printer Dependencies to "All", the preset does not save this setting. This issue only occurs on creation due to code that is meant to validate the data to prevent a case where the filament is compatible with none of the printers.
EDIT: While I considered redoing the data validation for this tab overall, I have now preserved the original purpose of the code, which is to add the current printer as a compatible printer only if:
- the base preset is a System preset
- the user has not specified any compatible printers
Notably, this seems to be the cause of #11959
Moving the data validation from `Preset::save_current_preset` to `Tab::save_preset` allows the Preset function to be simplified through removal of the current printer parameter.
# Screenshots/Recordings/Graphs
There is no visible change on the UI.
## Tests
Tested the following combinations of filament presets:
- System->new User
- User->new User
- User->same User
Tried to set them to All, where the System->new User should be the only case where this is replaced by a default.
In any case where there are printers already set, those settings should be kept.

Refresh filament setting overrides on preset change
The filament “Setting Overrides” page derives its UI state from multiple configs
(filament, printer, process), but this derived state was not recomputed during
preset reloads.
As a result, override widgets could reflect stale values until the page was
revisited or a user interaction triggered an update.
Recompute the filament setting overrides as part of TabFilament::reload_config(),
keeping the derived UI in sync with the active preset immediately after reload.
Fix filament preset undo/dirty tracking to match Bambu behavior
Use deep compare for filament presets so vector options report #idx keys.
Align undo/dirty mapping with indexed fields and Bambu’s filter_diff_option.
Pass explicit indices for filament override fields.
Add missing filament variant keys (retract lift bounds, ironing overrides) to filament_options_with_variant so per‑filament undo works.
