PrusaSlicer 2.4.2-rc1
Summary
This is release candidate of a patch release fixing several bugs found in 2.4.1 release. See the previous release logs for the complete list of bugfixes and improvements in the 2.4 series.
Bugs fixed
- SLA mode incorrectly handled 3MFs from 3rd party software, resulting in misplaced SLA support points and holes in some cases (#6100, #7359, #7189, #7826, #7659). This is very old issue.
- Vase mode preview did not show in cases when Custom Start G-Code lacked moves in Z #8032
- When loading a 3rd party 3MF using drag and drop. PrusaSlicer no longer asks if the 3MF shall be loaded as a project (which makes no sense since it contains no config) and loads the geometry only
- Using the Layer Height Modifier with the wipe tower was impossible with multiple objects. The wipe tower reported that the layer height profile is different, even though it was in fact set the same on all objects (#7711, #7903, #8044)
- Fixed a crash on "Convert from/to units" when several objects were selected
- Automatic color change for logo crashed PrusaSlicer in certain cases (when a one-layer object was present) #8156
- macOS specific: It is now possible to restore PrusaSlicer by clicking the dock icon after minimizing it. Partial fix was already in 2.4.1, this release should fix it for good on all macOS versions both Intel and ARM (#6364, related to #7981).
- Linux specific: Fixed a crash on opening projects in some cases (#8078, #8097)
Localization
- Fixed minor errors in German translation #8024
- Updated Simplified Chinese localization (#8105 - thanks @kang-kang)
