It's easy in any programming language with decent string support. Read the G-code file... as soon as you encounter a line G1 X... Y... without E..., insert your G4 before it.

"config.exe"? Was that supposed to be "config.ini"?

As for no-support:
Set the number of perimeters to 1 instead of 4. Your wall is less than 3 perimeters wide. Slic3r lays the fourth perimeter in the air. In order to get bridges, ends of bridging strands should be put onto something. Lateral adhesion is very unlikely to happen with nothing underneath.

a) dry run will take time. Oozing will be a problem
b) I don't think it is possible to heat through the printed layer of plastic in small enough time. Just using larger extrusion width and higher temperature IMO should give better results (wide extrusion is pushing the molten filament into the model quite hard).

Well, I have tried to slice that model with overhang threshold of 80 degrees. That took a few hours, ugh!
All the model is almost completely soaked with the support material (expectedly =), including right beneath the balls. The SM is separated from the model by quite some distance. See the attached picture, where I've selected layers 5 to 18 for rendering, just where the interesting stuff is h

Slic3r
Why do I use Slic3r? Here is my list:
1. It was shipped with my 3d printer and there was a good beginner's guide to most important settings.
2. It works for me. I've encountered only one two real bugs so far. That is a low bug density I'd say. I did get quite a number of ruined prints, but not a single one was caused by Slic3r itsef (they were caused by my incompetence, not adequate print setting

Hi! Looks like I've encountered a bug in Slic3r!
Slic3r 1.1.6 in Repetier-Host v1.00 RC2. (yeah, not the newest, but quite recent =)
I was trying out spiral vase mode, the model is just a solid 48-segment cylinder. And the slicer output showed up as total garbage in Slic3r (see attachments). At first, I even thought it could be Repetier-Host visualization bug, so I've even tried printing the gar

So, the problem is solved. I had to make two models: one for the solid airproof shell, the other for the sparse infill (still a simple solid, just indicating where to make the infill). I joined them in Slic3r's plater, made an AMF file, re-imported it into the plater, modified the settings for interior part so that it is printed with normal extruder and it has no perimeters and solid infill. And

QuoteSublimeYou could try Cura and in the expert options there is an option to keep open faces.
Thanks for the answer! I have searched for help on this option and found that:

"Keep open faces" happens in a step before that . What Cura does at first, is taking a knife and slicing your model into tiny slices. Each slice is a layer as you might understand. But, 3D models are never perfect

Thanks for the answer!
Quote3Dmaker4U- model the interior as full solid and make 2 more copies
- use one copy to extrude the walls that you want to be
- intersect above with a second copy - the result will be the shell
- model the structure you want to have in the interior
- use the original of the interior to intersect with the structure
- combine the shell with the interior
eem.. As I got

Of course! I just missed the easy way! I can import two STLs separately and then put them into one group, and if I do like that - slicing works. So the problem is either fundamental with AMF files, or with my particular AMF file.

Hi!
I wanted to try a trick by fooling my printer that it has two extruders, and i'm stuck with a problem with (probably) Repetier-Host!
I have assembled a two-material AMF file from two STL files using Slic3r's plater, and imported it into Repetier-Host. I have added a second extruder in Repetier's printer settings. Now, when I attempt to slice the composite with Slic3r from Repetier-Host, it th

Hi everyone!
I like making speaker systems, and I realized recently that it's a good idea to have the infill in the whole working volume of a speaker cabinet. The infill will allow to make walls thin (keep them from wobbling) and act as sound absorbing material at the same time, preventing formation of standing waves inside.
However, it turns out that I don't know how to make some part of model's

That's great! Looking forward to a fix. So I'll try the real printing soon. I've installed this version yesterday and immediately felt like I am full of .. eemmm .. feedback. Thanks!

Well. Now I did change the system-wide dpi to various settings and here are the results (for g-code editor only):
100% - perfect (except everything is tiny on the screen, of course)
120% - messed up (the same way as 150%, judging by eye)
150% (my normal) - messed up
200% - messed up (completely invisible no matter how hard do I try to enlarge the area, probably just because too small an area is l

Hi!
Thanks for great software. Here is some feedback on the new user interface.
a) size problems already mentioned by others, namely:
* g-code editor is really small, it does not fill the available area
* x,y,z coordinates are off from their boxes
* no close button in about dialog (that big OK button is below the edge of the window, thus invisible)
This IS affected by dpi setting in windows: whe
