I'm not an expert on github but have a lot of coding experience and would like to take a look at the code. How do you download the source for prior versions of Slic3r? Are they archived?

Thanks Frank. That will get me the current version. smiling smiley

I would like to be able to find the source for older versions so I could compare them (diff) to try to understand why support material is broken in 1.2.6 and worked well in earlier versions.

If you want to avoid git you can download specific previous releases, you can get them from here:

[github.com]

However, if you don't mind learning a little git (it is worth learning it), you can download the master.zip or use git to clone the repository, e.g.:

git clone [github.com]

(I don't know how to undo the markup in the above -- just put the literal URL into the command line)

Once you have the clone, you have all the versions, so cd into that directory and do something like:

git diff 1.2.5..1.2.6


Which will give you a diff between the tag 1.2.5 and 1.2.6

Sorry Roger,

I misunderstood your question.

But what is the problem you have with the support function ?

I don't use support very often and i know, the automatic support is not perfect.
But with threshold value it should work...

If you want, i can can give you a simple calibration object, which is very helpful for adjusting the threshold value.
