 All notable changes to Bambuddy will be documented in this file.
 
-## [0.1.7b] - Not released
+
+## [0.1.8b] - Not released
+
+### Enhanced
+- **Virtual Printer Proxy Mode Improvements**:
+  - SSDP proxy for cross-network setups: select slicer network interface for automatic printer discovery via SSDP relay
+  - FTP proxy now listens on privileged port 990 (matching Bambu Studio expectations) instead of 9990
+  - For systemd: requires `AmbientCapabilities=CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE` capability
+  - Automatic directory permission checking at startup with clear error messages for Docker/bare metal
+  - Updated translations for proxy mode steps in English, German, and Japanese
+
+### Fixed
+- **Authentication Required Error After Initial Setup** (Issue #257):
+  - Fixed "Authentication required" error when using printer controls after fresh install with auth enabled
+  - Token clearing on 401 responses is now more selective - only clears on invalid token messages
+  - Generic "Authentication required" errors (which may be timing issues) no longer clear the token
+  - Also fixed smart plug discovery scan endpoints missing auth headers
+- **Filament Hover Card Overlapping Navigation Bar** (Issue #259):
+  - Fixed filament info popup being partially covered by the navigation bar
+  - Hover card positioning now accounts for the fixed 56px header
+  - Cards near the top of the page now correctly flip to show below the slot
+- **Filament Statistics Incorrectly Multiplied by Quantity** (Issue #229):
+  - Fixed filament totals being inflated by incorrectly multiplying by quantity
+  - The `filament_used_grams` field already contains the total for the entire print job
+  - Removed incorrect `* quantity` multiplication from archive stats, Prometheus metrics, and FilamentTrends chart
+  - Example: A print with 26 objects using 126g was incorrectly shown as 3,276g
+- **Print Queue Status Does Not Match Printer Status** (Issue #249):
+  - Queue now shows "Paused" when the printer is paused instead of "Printing"
+  - Fetches real-time printer state for actively printing queue items
+  - Added translations for paused status in English, German, and Japanese
+- **Queue Scheduled Time Displayed in Wrong Timezone** (Issue #233):
+  - Fixed scheduled time being displayed in UTC instead of local timezone when editing queue items
+  - The datetime picker now correctly shows and saves times in the user's local timezone
+- **Mobile Layout Issues on Archives and Statistics Pages** (Issue #255):
+  - Fixed header buttons overflowing outside the screen on iPhone/mobile devices
+  - Headers now stack vertically on small screens with proper wrapping
+  - Applied consistent responsive pattern from PrintersPage
+- **AMS Auto-Matching Selects Wrong Slot** (Issue #245):
+  - Fixed AMS slot mapping when multiple trays have the same `tray_info_idx` (filament type identifier)
+  - `tray_info_idx` (e.g., "GFA00" for generic PLA) identifies filament TYPE, not unique spools
+  - When multiple trays match the same type, color is now used as a tiebreaker
+  - Previously used `find()` which always returned the first match regardless of color
+  - Fixed in both backend (print_scheduler.py) and frontend (useFilamentMapping.ts)
+  - Resolves wrong tray selection (e.g., A4 instead of B1) when multiple AMS units have same filament type
+
+### Added
+- **Windows Portable Launcher** (contributed by nmori):
+  - New `start_bambuddy.bat` for Windows users - double-click to run, no installation required
+  - Automatically downloads Python 3.13 and Node.js 22 on first run (portable, no system changes)
+  - Everything stored in `.portable\` folder for easy cleanup
+  - Commands: `start_bambuddy.bat` (launch), `start_bambuddy.bat update` (update deps), `start_bambuddy.bat reset` (clean start)
+  - Custom port via `set PORT=9000 & start_bambuddy.bat`
+  - Verifies all downloads with SHA256 checksums for security
+  - Supports both x64 and ARM64 Windows systems
+
+## [0.1.7] - 2026-02-03
 
 ### Security
 - **Critical: Missing API Endpoint Authentication** (CVE-2026-25505, CVSS 9.8):

+# Plate Management Verification Checklist
+
+## Manual Verification
+- Open an archive with a multi-plate 3MF and verify the plate selector shows All Plates plus each plate entry.
+- Select each plate and confirm the 3D viewer updates to show only that plate’s objects.
+- Switch back to All Plates and confirm all geometry renders again.
+- Verify the plate thumbnail and plate name are shown in the selector for plates with metadata.
+- Open a single-plate 3MF and confirm the selector does not appear.
+- Open an STL or non-3MF archive and confirm the viewer shows a friendly unsupported format error (no crash).
+
+## Test Targets
+- MSW handler for /api/v1/archives/:id/plates should return a structured response.
+- ArchivesPage plate hover handlers should not throw when plates data is empty.

+# 3MF Plate Management Feature Plan
+## Overview
+This plan outlines the implementation of plate management features for the bambuddy 3D viewer. This will allow users to view, select, and manage individual plates within 3MF files, similar to how Bambu Studio handles multi-plate projects.
+## Background
+### Current 3MF File Structure
+3MF files use a hierarchical XML structure to manage multiple build plates:
+```
+3dmodel.model (root)
+├── Metadata/
+│   └── model_settings.config  # Plate configuration manager
+├── 3dmodel.model (main model data)
+│   ├── <object> definitions (unique geometry)
+│   └── <build> items (plate assignments)
+└── Metadata/
+    └── plate_1.png, plate_2.png, etc. (plate thumbnails)
+```
+### Key Concepts
+- **Build Items**: Objects assigned to specific plates via `bambu:plate_id` attribute
+- **Plate Configuration**: `Metadata/model_settings.config` manages plate definitions, names, bed types
+- **Object Instances**: Each unique object defined once, referenced by multiple build items
+- **Transformation Matrix**: Each build item has position, rotation, scale relative to its plate's center
+- **Plate Thumbnails**: PNG images showing each plate's layout for preview
+## Feature Requirements
+### 1. Plate Metadata Parsing
+**Goal**: Read and parse `Metadata/model_settings.config` from 3MF files
+**Technical Details**:
+- Parse XML structure to extract:
+  - Plate count
+  - Plate names (custom or default)
+  - Plate dimensions
+  - Bed type per plate (Textured PE, Cool Plate, etc.)
+  - Printer type per plate (X1C, A1 mini, etc.)
+- Extract plate-to-object mappings from `<build>` items
+- Parse object-to-plate assignments from `<object>` `bambu:plate_id` attributes
+**Implementation Approach**:
+- Use JSZip to extract `Metadata/model_settings.config` from 3MF ZIP
+- Parse XML using DOMParser or similar library
+- Create TypeScript interfaces for plate metadata
+### 2. UI/UX Design
+**Goal**: Intuitive plate selection and object management interface
+**Components Needed**:
+#### A. Plate Selector/Tab System
+- **Plate Tabs**: Horizontal tabs showing each plate (Plate 1, Plate 2, etc.)
+- **Plate Dropdown**: Dropdown to select active plate
+- **Plate Info Panel**: Display plate name, dimensions, bed type
+- **Thumbnail Preview**: Show plate thumbnail when selected
+#### B. Object Filtering
+- **Filter by Plate**: When a plate is selected, show only objects on that plate
+- **Object List**: Display objects with their positions on current plate
+- **Object Selection**: Allow selecting individual objects (checkbox, multi-select)
+- **Object Info**: Show object name, dimensions, material color
+#### C. 3D Viewer Enhancements
+- **Plate-Specific Rendering**: Render only objects for selected plate
+- **Object Highlighting**: Highlight selected objects in 3D view
+- **Plate Grid Overlay**: Show build plate boundaries when viewing specific plate
+- **Plate Indicator**: Visual indicator of which plate is currently active
+#### D. Object Manipulation (Optional - Future Enhancement)
+- **Drag and Drop**: Move objects between plates
+- **Object Repositioning**: Adjust X/Y/Z position on current plate
+- **Object Rotation**: Rotate objects on build plate
+- **Object Scaling**: Resize objects
+- **Delete from Plate**: Remove object from current plate
+- **Add to Plate**: Copy object to different plate
+### 3. Data Model Design
+**Goal**: Track plate assignments and configurations
+**State Structure**:
+```typescript
+interface Plate {
+  id: string;
+  name: string;
+  width: number;
+  depth: number;
+  bedType: string;
+  printerType: string;
+  objectIds: string[];
+}
+interface ObjectAssignment {

+}
+```
+**Storage Considerations**:
+- In-memory state for current session
+- Optional: Save plate configurations to localStorage
+- Optional: Save to backend as user preferences
+### 4. Backend API Requirements
+**Goal**: API endpoints for saving/loading plate configurations
+**Required Endpoints**:
+#### A. Get Plate Metadata
+```
+GET /api/v1/library/files/{id}/plates
+```
+Returns plate metadata from 3MF file
+#### B. Save Plate Configuration (Optional)
+```
+POST /api/v1/library/files/{id}/plates/config
+Body: {
+  plates: Plate[];
+  defaultPlateId?: string;
+}
+```
+Save custom plate names, assignments to user preferences
+#### C. Get Plate Thumbnail
+```
+GET /api/v1/library/files/{id}/plates/{plateId}/thumbnail
+```
+Returns PNG image of specific plate
+### 5. Implementation Steps
+#### Step 1: 3MF Metadata Parser
+- Create `PlateMetadataParser` class
+- Implement `parse3MFPlateMetadata(file: File)` method
+- Extract `Metadata/model_settings.config` from ZIP
+- Parse XML structure
+- Return typed plate metadata
+#### Step 2: Update ModelViewer Component
+- Add `plates` prop to ModelViewerProps
+- Add `selectedPlateId` prop to ModelViewerProps
+- Add `selectedObjectIds` prop to ModelViewerProps
+- Add `filterMode` prop to ModelViewerProps
+- Modify `useEffect` to filter objects by selected plate
+- Add plate selection state management
+- Implement object highlighting for selected objects
+- Add plate grid overlay visualization
+#### Step 3: Update ModelViewerModal
+- Add plate selector UI (tabs or dropdown)
+- Display plate information panel
+- Show plate thumbnail preview
+- Add "All Plates" view option
+- Pass selected plate and objects to ModelViewer
+#### Step 4: Update FileManagerPage
+- Add plate management state
+- Add plate selector to file cards (optional)
+- Display plate badge on file cards
+- Add plate count indicator in file list
+#### Step 5: API Client Updates
+- Add `getLibraryFilePlates(fileId: number)` method
+- Add `saveLibraryFilePlateConfig(fileId: number, config: PlateConfig)` method
+- Add `getLibraryFilePlateThumbnail(fileId: number, plateId: string)` method
+#### Step 6: Testing
+- Test with multi-plate 3MF files
+- Test plate selection and object filtering
+- Test plate switching
+- Test object highlighting
+- Verify thumbnail generation
+### 6. Technical Considerations
+#### A. Coordinate Systems
+- **3MF**: Uses local (0,0,0) origin per plate
+- **Viewer**: Uses Three.js Y-up coordinate system
+- **Challenge**: Need to convert between coordinate systems when rendering specific plates
+**Solution**: Store plate origin offset, apply when rendering specific plate
+#### B. Performance
+- **Lazy Loading**: Load plate metadata on-demand, not entire file upfront
+- **Object Culling**: Don't render objects not on current plate
+- **Thumbnail Caching**: Cache plate thumbnails
+#### C. Backward Compatibility
+- **Single Plate Files**: Continue working as-is (show all plates)
+- **No Plate Metadata**: Gracefully degrade to full model view
+- **STL Files**: Plate management not applicable (no plate structure)
+### 7. UI/UX Flow
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    A[User opens 3MF file] --> B{3D Viewer loads file}
+    B --> C{Parse plate metadata}
+    C --> D{Display plate selector}
+    D --> E{User selects plate}
+    E --> F{Filter objects by plate}
+    F --> G{Highlight selected objects}
+    G --> H{Render plate-specific view}
+    H --> I{User clicks Print}
+```
+### 8. Limitations
+- **Complexity**: 3MF plate structure is complex, requires careful XML parsing
+- **File Size**: Large 3MF files with many plates may have performance impact
+- **STL Files**: No plate structure, feature not applicable
+- **Testing**: Extensive testing needed for various plate configurations
+- **Backward Compatibility**: Must maintain existing single-plate view behavior
+### 9. Future Enhancements (Out of Scope)
+- **Object Manipulation**: Drag-and-drop, rotation, scaling
+- **Plate Creation**: Add new plates, duplicate objects between plates
+- **Plate Templates**: Save and reuse plate configurations
+- **Batch Operations**: Apply settings to multiple plates at once
+- **Visual Plate Editor**: Graphical plate layout designer
+## Success Criteria
+- [ ] Users can view all plates in a 3MF file
+- [ ] Users can select individual plates
+- [ ] Objects are filtered by selected plate
+- [ ] Selected objects are highlighted in 3D view
+- [ ] Plate information is displayed (name, dimensions, bed type)
+- [ ] Plate thumbnails are shown
+- [ ] Works with both 3MF and STL files
+- [ ] Backward compatible with single-plate files
+- [ ] Performance is acceptable with large files
+- [ ] All existing features continue to work
+## Implementation Priority
+1. **High**: Core plate parsing and rendering
+2. **Medium**: UI components and state management
+3. **Low**: Backend API and advanced features
+4. **Future**: Object manipulation and plate creation

+# What's New: 3D File Preview Updates
+
+## Overview
+- Expanded 3D previews in the Library File Manager and Printer File Manager.
+- Added STL support (interactive 3D view) alongside existing 3MF/G-code previews.
+- Improved multi-plate handling for 3MF files in the printer file manager.
+
+## Library File Manager (Files Page)
+- 3D preview now supports `.3mf`, `.gcode`, and `.stl` files.
+- STL files open in the same viewer modal used by 3MF files.
+- Plate-aware selection continues to work for 3MF files with multiple plates.
+
+## Printer File Manager (Printers → File Manager)
+- Added a 3D View action for `.3mf`, `.gcode`, and `.stl` files on the printer.
+- New printer-side 3MF plate endpoints:
+  - Plate list and metadata retrieval.
+  - Plate thumbnail retrieval.
+- Added a printer-side gcode preview endpoint for 3MF and `.gcode` files.
+- STL models are centered on the build sheet in the 3D viewer.
+
+## Model Viewer Enhancements
+- Added STL rendering support using `STLLoader`.
+- Viewer now selects the correct rendering pipeline based on file type.
+- STL models auto-center on the build plate for a consistent viewing experience.
+
+## Affected Areas
+- Frontend: File Manager modals and 3D viewer.
+- Backend: Printer file preview endpoints for plates, plate thumbnails, and gcode.
