It was already public and used elsewhere, so the new get_background_process()
and its duplicate forward declaration were redundant; Plater.hpp is now untouched.
The recipe's 3MF entry moved from Metadata/SnapOrca_cad.bin to
Metadata/orca_cad.bin, so projects saved by earlier builds opened with an
empty Design tab. Both 3MF backends now read either name and write only the
new one; the recipe version advances to 6 to mark the move.
The tab is now gated on a new enable_cad_feature app-config key, off by
default, exposed in Preferences under General > Features. When off, the
page is never created, so the Design-only camera option is hidden too.
Takes effect on restart, like the other feature toggles.
SLIC3R_CAD=OFF now builds without SolveSpace or OCCT's ModelingAlgorithms
module, leaving the dependency set identical to upstream's, and the Design
tab's mate connector preference no longer appears in builds without the tab.
When the deps prefix and the project disagree about the option, the configure
fails naming the cause, rather than failing at link time or at first launch
on Windows. The Windows packaging step stages exactly the toolkits libslic3r
links.
The Camera is Plater-owned and shared by every canvas, and Design sits
outside the panel switch that saves and restores it for Prepare,
Preview and Assemble — so orbiting in Design moved what the editor
tabs showed, and Design lost its own view on every switch. Trade the
live camera for a parked one on the way in and back on the way out, so
Design keeps its view the way Assemble already does.
New Project and Open Project went through Plater::priv::reset, which
drops ModelObjects but not the Model-level recipe, and never touched
the Design panel's document at all — so the previous design stayed
loaded and its next edit wrote itself into the new project.
A design that has not been committed to the plate has no ModelObjects,
so the project also read as clean: no autosave, and no unsaved-changes
prompt before the reset threw the design away.
DesignPanel's constructor creates several hundred controls and its own GL
canvas, which every launch paid for whether or not the user ever opened the
tab. The notebook page is now an empty placeholder and the panel is built
into it the first time the tab is selected, so m_design_panel stays null
until then.
This also lifts the ordering constraint that had pushed the plater's
background colour and Hide() below the panel construction; they go back
where they were.
* Keep mixed-color filaments intact when the extruder count changes
The extruder-count spinner resized the filament arrays in bulk at the tail,
which is where mixed-color slots live, so a new filament landed behind the
mix and the sidebar skipped a slot number. It now adds and removes one slot
at a time through the same calls the sidebar's +/- buttons use, so a new
slot opens ahead of the mixed tail and a removal renumbers object filament
ids, painted facets, custom g-code and mixed components rather than
clamping them away.
Drops the vector overload of set_num_filaments(), which this leaves without
callers.

The sidebar Mixed Filament list, the extruder icons, the color painting
gizmo and the canvas filament bar now show the same bottom-to-top fade the
Edit Mixed Filament preview shows, custom gradient curves included, instead
of a horizontal fade between the two component colours. Ordinary and vendor
multi-colour filaments are drawn exactly as before.
Mixed-colour slots are virtual and never flushed. Guard auto_calc_flushing_volumes_internal against them as BambuStudio does, and make the flushing dialog's default matrix and the sidebar 'modified' comparison physical-only so the untouched mixed rows no longer count as a user edit and the Re-calculate result matches the physical-only table.
Selecting the web Device tab loaded the printer's web UI from the selected discovered machine
when the preset carried no host. That arm was lost merging main into this branch — two of the
three Plater.cpp hunks from #15134 survived, this one did not — leaving the tab blank, since
PrinterWebView starts on an empty URL and nothing else navigates it.
In printer-agents mode the legacy web page was appended under Notebook::PAGE_MONITOR, which
resolves to the same "monitor" id as the native Device tab. FindPageByName returns the first
match, so PluginPages::relayout() — which saves the selection by name and restores it after
rebuilding the tab strip — moved the user off the web tab onto the native one. The tab also
disagreed with its own label, being created as "Device (legacy)" and renamed to "Device (Web)"
on the next show_device() call.
* Add /bot merge for delegated vendor profile maintainers
Vendor profile PRs no longer need a maintainer with repository write access: an
account listed in the FOLDER_MERGERS variable can squash-merge a PR confined to
the folders it owns by commenting /bot merge on it. Anything reaching outside
that grant, targeting a branch other than main or release/*, or missing a green
Check profiles run is declined with a comment naming the offending files.
Grants live in the merge-delegation environment, so only an admin can change who
may merge, and MERGE_BOT_DRY_RUN stops all merging without a code change.
Check profiles now also runs on release/* pull requests; nothing else changes
for existing contributors.
* Add profile version bump to the code review checklist
Without the bump in resources/profiles/<Vendor>.json, a preset change never
reaches existing installs over the air.

The prime tower reserved its footprint from the prime volume alone,
ignoring the flush volumes it actually has to hold, so on a multi-colour
print the tower shown in Prepare and the space kept clear for it during
arrange could be far smaller than the tower that gets sliced — leaving
it overlapping objects or running off the plate. This sizes the estimate
from the configured flush volumes instead, for rib walls as well as
rectangle and cone, applies the same height-based minimum depth the
prime-volume estimate already used, and reads the flush matrix correctly
on multi-nozzle printers, where it holds one block per nozzle.
Only the pre-slice estimate changes: the generated tower is untouched,
and prints that do not purge into the prime tower keep their existing
size.

Prime towers reserved depth from the prime volume alone, ignoring the flush
matrix: rib-wall towers in both the engine and the preview, and rectangle and
cone towers in the preview, which never carried the flush-aware estimate the
engine already used. The preview also read the print preset, which does not
carry the printer- and filament-scope keys the estimate needs and so silently
fell back to defaults. On multi-nozzle printers the flush matrix, which holds
one block per nozzle, was additionally read as a single block. The tower could
come out too small for the purge it has to hold.
The flush-based estimate also skipped the height-based minimum depth that the
prime-volume one applies, so low-flush prints could estimate a tower shallower
than the one that actually gets built.

On delta, circular and custom bed shapes — and on multi-nozzle printers
where each carriage only reaches part of the plate — the prime tower was
positioned and clamped against the bed's bounding box, so it could be
parked in a corner the bed does not actually have. Neither the default
placement nor dragging the tower would pull it back onto the bed, and
slicing went ahead without complaint. The tower's default position, its
drag clamp and the slice-time validation now all follow the real
printable outline, and a tower that genuinely does not fit is reported
as "Prime Tower is partially outside the printable area" instead of
being sliced into a print that cannot be produced.
The travel that approaches the tower is planned against that same
outline. Previously the router gave up whenever its clearance box fell
outside the bed and drove the nozzle straight across the tower; a tower
parked near the bed edge now keeps its detour and enters through the
wall opening as intended.
This also corrects the footprint the prime tower validation uses for a
rotated tower, which was being rotated by the wrong amount and about the
wrong point, so proximity warnings and exclusion-area errors for rotated
towers were being computed against the wrong shape.
Prime tower placement on rectangular beds is unchanged. The new
printable-area validation and the tower-approach routing fix apply to
every bed shape.

Added unit coverage for the placement clamp against a non-rectangular
outline (a regular hexagon standing in for the shipped delta beds),
covering the rectangular-bed path, single-axis clamping while dragging,
a footprint already inside the outline, one sitting in the bounding-box
corner but off the bed, an unresolved auto brim width arriving as a
negative margin, and a footprint too large for the bed. The `fff_print`
suite passes.

The placement clamps and the tower-approach router both stood in the bed's
bounding box for the bed itself, so on a delta or hexagonal bed the prime tower
could be parked in a corner that does not exist and the nozzle could be routed
across it. Both now test the real printable outline, slicing reports a tower
that does not fit instead of printing it off the bed, and a tower parked near an
edge is routed along the clamped side rather than falling back to a straight
line across the tower.
Also fixes the placement validation rotating the tower hull by degrees read as
radians about the plate origin, and never rotating the generated tower footprint
at all.

Adds **Wait for temperature on wipe tower**, a printer option for
multi-extruder
machines using a Type 2 wipe tower. With it on, the new tool is picked
up without a
blocking temperature wait; the printer travels to the wipe tower and
waits there
right before purging, parked beside the tower so the ooze from the
heat-up lands
next to it rather than on the model. The incoming filament's target is
raised ahead
of the tool change, so the heat-up overlaps both the change itself and
the travel to
the tower.
The benefit is less oozing and less dead time. The tool no longer sits
at full print
temperature while it waits to be picked up or right after it undocks —
it heats on
the move and only reaches temperature once it is over the tower, so
there is far less
hot-and-idle time, and what does ooze ends up beside the tower. This
matters most on
tool changer printers with long docking and attaching cycles, such as
Tapchanger and
StealthChanger machines, where that wait is otherwise pure stall time
spent dripping.
The firmware or tool change macro must not wait for the temperature
itself. The
option is off by default and only shown for multi-extruder printers on a
Type 2 wipe
tower, and it is enabled by default for the generic toolchanger profile.

New Catch2 cases in `tests/fff_print/test_multifilament.cpp`: the wait
moves to the
tower when enabled, priming pre-heats to the first layer temperature,
the park side
is regenerated when the tower is moved or rotated, and a regression test
pinning the
unchanged (option-off) toolchange temperature commands against a
recorded trace
(`tests/data/wipe_tower_temperature_trace_main.txt`).

Adds a printer option that picks up the new tool without a blocking temperature
wait, travels to the wipe tower, and waits there right before purging, parked
beside the tower so the ooze from the heat-up lands next to it rather than on the
model. The incoming filament's target is raised ahead of the tool change, so the
heat-up overlaps both the change itself and the travel to the tower.
Off by default, and only offered for multi-extruder printers using a Type 2 wipe
tower; the generic toolchanger profile enables it.
# Description
On Klipper the wipe tower's motion-queue synchronization silently did
nothing. Klipper acts on commands the moment it parses them, and its
`G4` reads only `P` in milliseconds — it ignores `S` — so the `G4 S0`
the tower used to flush the queue before a temperature change never
synchronized anything, and the cooling delay after a filament's cooling
moves passed instantly instead of waiting. The tower now emits `M400`
for the flush and `G4 P<ms>` for the dwell when the flavor is Klipper.
Only `gcode_flavor = klipper` is affected; G-code for every other flavor
is byte-identical, so no shipped profile or existing project file
changes.

The wipe tower's "Delay after unloading" never happened on Klipper. It was
emitted as G4 S<seconds>, and Klipper's G4 reads only the P parameter, in
milliseconds, so the pause was silently skipped. The option now produces a
dwell Klipper actually performs.
Also corrects the planner flush rationale, which cited an extruder position
reset that Klipper resolves at parse time and does not need synchronized, and
adds end-to-end coverage that slices a two-filament print and checks the
emitted wipe tower G-code on both a Klipper and a non-Klipper flavor.
No change to any other firmware flavor's output, and no shipped profile sets a
non-zero delay, so no shipped profile's output moves either.
The wipe tower emitted G4 S0 to make the firmware finish its queued moves
before commands that must not take effect early. Klipper's G4 reads only the
P parameter, so that flush never happened there and a temperature change could
land seconds ahead of the moves it was meant to follow. Klipper now gets M400
instead, through one helper shared by both wipe tower implementations.
No change to any other firmware flavor's output, so no shipped profile or saved
project is affected.

The linear approximation used a heuristic segment count clamped to 4..16, so the
lift ran as a coarse polygon. Every vertex is a direction change large enough to
hit the firmware's jerk limit, forcing a decelerate/accelerate at each corner —
the lift micro-stutters instead of running at speed. The segment count now comes
from the chord deviation against the slicing resolution, reusing
Geometry::ArcWelder::arc_discretization_steps, which keeps the turn at each
vertex shallow enough for the firmware to carry speed through the whole move.
Points are emitted through GCodeG1Formatter so they carry the same quantization
as the rest of the G-code, and the move comment now trails the feedrate line to
match _travel_to_z and the G2/G3 branch. No change when arc fitting is enabled.
# Description
On multi-tool printers using the type 2 wipe tower, the travel to the
tower ignored the configured Z hop type and always used a plain vertical
hop, so the nozzle rose in place over the part and oozed instead of
lifting away with the travel. It now follows the filament's Z hop
setting, matching what the type 1 tower already does.
Only toolchange travels to a type 2 tower change. Normal Lift and z_hop
= 0 are unaffected, and no extrusion moves change in any mode.

The tower travel took retract()'s default vertical Z hop instead of the
configured one, so the nozzle rose in place over the part and oozed
rather than departing with the travel. Pass the filament's z_hop_types
through, mapping Auto to a spiral lift as append_tcr does.
* Sync WipeTower from BambuStudio(through ca1881761)
* Fix post-slice self-invalidation on custom multi-extruder printers
* Complete the rib wipe tower port in WipeTower2
The rib tower is now always square (prime_tower_width is ignored, as the
GUI already implies), carries the rib origin offset like the BBL tower so
the rib tips sit inside the configured position, clamps the rib length to
the tower diagonal, and extends the ribs for short towers.
* Use the squared rib tower size in arrange estimates
estimate_wipe_tower_polygon reserved the arrange footprint and clamped the
tower X position with the raw prime_tower_width, under-reserving space
whenever the rib wall squares the tower to a different width.
* Print the WipeTower2 shell with a non-support, non-soluble filament
Like the BBL tower: the layer's sparse infill, wall, and brim go to the
first toolchange to a non-support/non-soluble filament, or are printed
with the incoming filament before any toolchange. The minimal-purge
clamp now also covers toolchanges that get no finish-layer saving.
Output is unchanged when no support/soluble filament is used.
* Port the skip-points gap wall to WipeTower2
prime_tower_skip_points was stubbed for Type2 towers: the wall call
hard-coded skip_points=false, the gap cutter received an empty vector,
and append_tcr2 never routed the entry travel. Now the toolchange entry
positions are precomputed from the finalized plan, the wall is cut open
at each entry, and the entry travel approaches around the tower bounding
box through the opening when it starts outside the tower. The geometry
helpers are re-synced with the BBL versions (add_extra_point guards,
per-point side selection). The cone wall keeps its separate path, where
the option stays inert.
Behavior change: non-BBL towers now honor the (default-on) checkbox with
gap walls and routed entries; with the option off the output is
unchanged, and the BBL tower path is untouched.
* Route the in-place toolchange tower entry through the skip-point gap
On multi-tool printers without ramming the tool changes away from the
tower and the entry travel is the tcr's own positioning move, which went
straight across the printed wall. Append the avoid-perimeter path to the
change-filament gcode instead, so the head approaches around the tower
and enters through the wall opening (append_tcr parity).
* Iron the purge start out through the skip-point gap in WipeTower2
Port the BBL tower's entry line ironing: extrude the first 3 mm of the
purge, retract, drag the nozzle 1.5x back out through the wall gap at
F600, creep back at F240 and unretract, so the toolchange start blob
ends up in the gap instead of on the wall. Fires only when the purge
starts at the left-edge entry heading right (in-place toolchangers);
SEMM ram/cooling wipes start mid-box and the priming line has no wall,
so both keep their previous output.
* Reserve WipeTower2 toolchange depth to match the printed purge
The planner reserved ramming rows gated only on enable_filament_ramming and
sized them with the SEMM 0.25s time step, while toolchange_Unload rams on
(semm && enable_filament_ramming) || filament_multitool_ramming with the
multitool time step. Disabling multitool ramming therefore left ~3 unprinted
rows per toolchange as blank bands in the tower. Without ramming the first
wipe line also needs reserved depth of its own (it no longer rides the last
ramming row), plus the y_step/2 offset the wipe start inherits from the
ramming start position - otherwise the tightened boxes truncate the ordered
purge at the box edge.
* Tile WipeTower2 purge rows contiguously across toolchange blocks
Without ramming, each purge block reserved one wipe pitch more than its
rows occupy (ceil+1 rounding plus the ram-geometry start offset), and the
wipe began a full pitch inside the block, leaving a blank band of exactly
two pitches between adjacent blocks. Plan the block as whole wipe rows,
start the first row so the row lattice continues across the block
boundary, and fill the reserved box instead of stopping at the ordered
volume, mirroring how the BBL WipeTower keeps planned depth identical to
printed rows. Ram-printing toolchanges (SEMM with ramming enabled,
multitool ramming) are unchanged.
* Scrub the WipeTower2 toolchange entry with the BBL flat-ironing spiral
The entry scrub now matches the BBL tower's toolchange_wipe_new sequence:
after the ironing drag the retracted nozzle runs a dry expanding-square
spiral centred on the wall-gap entry point before resuming the purge row.
The spiral runs whenever the gap wall is on (disable per filament via
filament_tower_ironing_area = 0); WipeTower2 no longer reads
prime_tower_flat_ironing.
* Restart the WipeTower2 wipe at the box boundary after multitool ramming
With the gap wall on a multi-tool printer, quantize the ram band up to its
whole reserved rows (as the BBL tower does for the old-tool purge) and start
CP TOOLCHANGE WIPE at the left-edge boundary on a fresh row below it instead
of continuing from wherever the ram serpentine ended. The entry scrub then
runs at the wall gap on ram toolchanges too, and the wipe box is whole rows,
so it is filled completely like the no-ram case. SEMM and skip-points-off
behavior is unchanged.
* Move the WipeTower2 wall gap to the wipe start row for ram toolchanges
* code cleanup
