for offset2() with clear meaning.
New ClipperUtils functions: expand(), shrink() as an alternative
for offset() with clear meaning.
All offset values for the new functions are positive.
Various offsetting ClipperUtils (offset, offset2, offset2_ex) working
over Polygons were marked as unsafe, sometimes producing invalid output
if called for more than one polygon. These functions were reworked
to offset polygons one by one. The new functions working over Polygons
shall work the same way as the old safe ones working over ExPolygons,
but working with Polygons shall be computationally more efficient.
Improvements in FDM support generator:
1) For both grid and snug supports: Don't filter out supports for which
the contacts are completely reduced by support / object XY separation.
2) Rounding / merging of supports using the closing radius parameter is
now smoother, it does not produce sharp corners.
3) Snug supports: When calculating support interfaces, expand the projected
support contact areas to produce wider, printable and more stable interfaces.
4) Don't reduce support interfaces for snug supports for steep overhangs,
that would normally not need them. Snug supports often produce very
narrow support interface regions and turning them off makes the support
interfaces disappear.
TriangleMesh newly only holds indexed_triangle_set and
TriangleMeshStats. TriangleMeshStats contains an excerpt of stl_stats.
TriangleMeshStats are updated when initializing with indexed_triangle_set.
Admesh triangle mesh fixing is newly only used when loading an STL.
AMF / 3MF / OBJ file formats are already indexed triangle sets, thus
they are no more converted to admesh stl_file format, nor fixed
through admesh repair machinery. When importing AMF / 3MF / OBJ files,
volume is calculated and if negative, all faces are flipped. Also
a bounding box and number of open edges is calculated.
Implemented its_number_of_patches(), its_num_open_edges()
Optimized its_split(), its_is_splittable() using a visitor pattern.
Reworked QHull integration into TriangleMesh:
1) Face normals were not right.
2) Indexed triangle set is newly emitted instead of duplicating
vertices for each face.
Fixed cut_mesh(): Orient the triangulated faces correctly.
stl_stats are newly only accessed by TriangleMesh::stats(),
most of the direct access to TriangleMesh::stl is gone with the exception
of parsing input files (3MF, AMF, obj).
1) Slic3r::RuntimeError was replaced with ConfigurationError,
all exceptions thrown by the configuration layer are derived
from ConfigurationError.
2) When parsing configuration files, ConfigurationError is catched and
rethrown extended with the file name being parsed.
config bundles, project files (3MFs, AMFs). When loading these files,
the caller may decide whether to substitute some of the configuration
values the current PrusaSlicer version does not understand with
some reasonable default value, and whether to report it. If substitution
is disabled, an exception is being thrown as before this commit.
If substitution is enabled, list of substitutions is returned by the
API to be presented to the user. This allows us to introduce for example
new firmware flavor key in PrusaSlicer 2.4 while letting PrusaSlicer
2.3.2 to fall back to some default and to report it to the user.
When slicing from command line, substutions are performed by default
and reported into the console, however substitutions may be either
disabled or made silent with the new "config-compatibility" command
line option.
Substitute enums and bools only. Allow booleans to be parsed as
true: "1", "enabled", "on" case insensitive
false: "0", "disabled", "off" case insensitive
This will allow us in the future for example to switch the draft_shield
boolean to an enum with the following values: "disabled" / "enabled" / "limited".
Added "enum_bitmask.hpp" - support for type safe sets of options.
See for example PresetBundle::load_configbundle(...
LoadConfigBundleAttributes flags) for an example of intended usage.
WIP: GUI for reporting the list of config substitutions needs to be
implemented by @YuSanka.
WIP: MutablePolygon - linked list based polygon implementation
allowing rapid insertion and removal of points.
WIP: porting smooth_outward() from Cura.
Working contour offsetting,
skeleton_edges_rough() to detect "important" skeleton edges.
Radius of an inscribed circle along the "important" skeleton edges
changes slowly, therefore these "important" skeleton edges signify
oblong regions possibly needing a gap fill.
