Pronterface using Slic3r not slicing
June 05, 2012 06:06PM
So when I try the "Load File" button on pronterface it should connect to my slic3r. The following is the exact readout from the right hand message portion of pronterface. I can't figure out whats going on. Why does it say "wide character print" and have crazy dimensions and will not show the sliced model or print? Any ideas why it's not working and how I can fix it?

Entering skeinforge settings: "C:\\Users\\Andy\\Desktop\\3DPrinter\\Slic3r\\slic3r.exe" --load "C:\\Users\\Andy\\Desktop\\3DPrinter\\Slic3r\\config.ini" --ignore-nonexistent-config
Slicing C:\Users\Andy\Desktop\aligator_mini.stl
Slicing: "C:\Users\Andy\Desktop\3DPrinter\Slic3r\slic3r.exe" $s --load "C:\Users\Andy\Desktop\3DPrinter\Slic3r\config.ini" --output $o

Wide character in printf at C:/Users/Andy/Desktop/3DPrinter/Slic3r/lib/std/Slic3r/Print.pm line 463.

0 mm of filament used in this print

the print goes from 1000000.000000 mm to -1000000.000000 mm in X
and is -2000000.000000 mm wide

the print goes from 1000000.000000 mm to -1000000.000000 mm in Y
and is -2000000.000000 mm wide

the print goes from 1000000.000000 mm to -1000000.000000 mm in Z
and is -2000000.000000 mm high

Estimated duration (pessimistic): 0 layers, 00:00:00

Probably I figure out the problem,
It depends on slic3r's "config.ini"

If you put some non ASCII characters (as a special national letters) to Print settings->Notes, then Slic3r try to write it via print or printf function and fails, becouse print and printf did not support characters "Wider" than ASCII.

Hope it helps and I hope that someone will fix Slic3r smiling smiley
