github FormerLurker/ArcWelderPlugin 1.1.0rc2

latest release: 1.1.0rc4
pre-release3 years ago

This version fixes a few issues found in 1.1.0rc1, and includes support for UltiGCode. I want to REALLY encourage anyone reading this to take a few minutes to provide feedback here. I am especially interested in knowing who has installed this successfully, and if you have successfully printed a welded file. I also want to hear about the good, the bad, and the ugly. I really need some feedback so I know when this is stable enough to push to master. It's getting REALLY close now. Were it not for a substantial bugfix in the core ArcWelderLib, I would have already done this.

Enancements

  • Support for UltiGCode. Basically, if the first line of the GCode file is ;FLAVOR:UltiGCode, then that line is preserved, and the Arc Welder header will go under it. Solves this issue in the ArcWelderLib repo.
  • The display name of your welded file is now preserved, even if it is encoded due to OS incompatibility with some characters. This was added as an enhancement while solving #138.

Bug Fixes

  • Fix for #138, where files with encoded characters that are manually processed were not being decoded, resulting in a 'File Not Found' error.
  • Added a very important fix from an issue in the ArcWelderLib repository, where empty lines between GCodes that were converted to arcs could cause some out-of-order GCodes. For most people, this wasn't an issue, but some post-processors or manual edits could have caused print failures if newlines were inserted in GCodes that are turned into arcs. This was REALLY difficult to debug, so I'm keen to push this fix out there.
