Sliced files previewed through a vendored copy of PrettyGCode in an
iframe. It drew each move as a screen-space line -- a line has no
thickness in the scene, so it cannot occlude the layer behind it, which
is why prints came out stringy and shimmered where layers crossed. Being
a separate app in a frame, it could be neither themed nor translated, and
carried its own machinery for detecting a proxy refusing the embed.
Now built on libvgcode, the renderer OrcaSlicer draws its own preview
with, vendored from three-slicer (AGPL, same as us). It takes the THREE
namespace as an argument and imports nothing, so it runs on our 0.181
rather than the 0.160 its package pins.
The parser is ours; upstream renders its own kernel's output and ships no
G-code parser at all. Two things it has to get right, both found by
checking a real plate rather than assuming:
- BambuStudio does not use the OrcaSlicer/PrusaSlicer annotations. It
writes "; FEATURE:", "; LINE_WIDTH:", "; CHANGE_LAYER" and
"; Z_HEIGHT:", not ";TYPE:", ";WIDTH:" and ";LAYER_CHANGE". Reading
only the latter showed a 52-layer print as 23,165 layers in one colour,
because with no layer marker recognised every travel Z-hop split a
layer and every segment took the fallback feature.
- It emits a tenth of its moves as G2/G3 arcs -- 706 extruding ones in a
single plate. Ignoring them punched holes through curved walls and tree
supports. Arcs with no X/Y are the helical travel lift and lay down
nothing, so they interpolate as travels.
Four colour modes: filament (default, from the AMS slots the file was
sliced with), feature, layer height, line width. Speed, fan and
temperature are deliberately absent -- upstream derives those from
settings rather than the toolpath, and guesses dressed as measurements
are worse than an honest omission. The parser now carries the data to do
them properly later.
Legend entries are switches. Hiding removes the records before the mesh
is built rather than recolouring them: the shader packs colour into a
single float with no alpha, so there is no transparent to set, and
removal is the useful behaviour anyway -- a hidden support stops
occluding what it covered.
The scene is built once and only the toolpath rebuilds. Doing otherwise
constructed a new WebGLRenderer on every render, because the buildVolume
default is an object literal and so a fresh identity each time; browsers
cap live WebGL contexts and drop the oldest, which blanked the canvas
after a few interactions.
utils/framing.ts goes with the iframe, along with six now-orphaned
strings in all 13 locales. src/lib/vendor is excluded from eslint --
acting on findings in vendored code makes it impossible to re-copy on the
next upstream release.
The panel baselined every field on the option schema's compiled-in
defaults, so a preset setting a 0.42mm line width displayed 0 -- the C++
default meaning "derive from the nozzle". Every field was affected; the
Line width group just made it obvious.
Bambuddy cannot answer this itself. A standard-tier pick is only an
{inherits: ...} stub on our side, and local/cloud presets are deltas whose
remainder lives in the profile tree bundled inside the running sidecar.
The values now come from the sidecar's POST /profiles/resolve, which runs
the same resolver /slice does against the same profiles, so what the panel
shows cannot disagree with what a slice produces. Deliberately not the
local orca_profiles resolver: it walks OrcaSlicer's published tree, which
can differ from the image actually installed.
An untouched field shows the preset's value and reverting returns to it.
isModified compares against that baseline too, so fields the preset moved
off the C++ default are no longer flagged as user edits, and values nobody
typed are no longer sent. When the values can't be read -- sidecar offline
or older than the endpoint -- the panel falls back to schema defaults and
says so rather than presenting them as the preset's.
Row layout, from screenshots:
- The control column is anchored to the right edge at a fixed width. It
had been packed left after a fixed label column, leaving the values
stranded mid-container with dead space beside them.
- Units are no longer truncated to "mm o...". The cap fitted the common
"mm" but not "mm or %" or "mm/s² or %".
- The "from file" tick moved ahead of the control it qualifies; it used to
sit past the unit at the row's right edge, reading as unrelated.
Both the unit and the control keep fixed widths, and the tick's slot is
reserved on rows without one -- sizing any of them to content makes each
row's input land at a different x and the column comes out ragged.
Also fixes a field that could not be cleared: emptying a free-text input
dropped the key, so it snapped back to the baseline and retyping appended
to it ("0.42" + "0.5" = "0.420.5"). The number branch was fixed earlier;
the text branch -- coFloatOrPercent, coString, the vector types -- was
not, and the regression test used a number input so it never caught it.
Requires a sidecar built from orca-slicer-api 4b664b7 or later. Older
images 404 the endpoint, which is handled as the fallback above.
Slicing from Bambuddy meant taking a process preset as-is; any change
meant a round trip through Bambu Studio. The slice dialog now carries
OrcaSlicer's full process tree -- pages, groups, labels, tooltips,
ranges and defaults extracted from the slicer's own sources.
Enable/disable rules are evaluated from the slicer's own enable_if
expressions via a recursive-descent interpreter (no eval, CSP), with
enum comparisons validated against each option's declared values.
Anything undecidable leaves the field editable rather than greyed.
Overrides apply after the source's support config (#1881) and the
designer's carried tweaks (#2622), so an explicit choice always wins;
an untouched panel sends the same request as before.
Adds slice_engine as a separate setting from preferred_slicer -- where
slicing runs is a different axis from which binary the sidecar drives.
Only the sidecar engine is registered, so no picker renders yet.
chore(i18n): extend parity gate to all locales with strict/info tiers
Previously the script only inspected en/zh-CN/zh-TW, leaving de/fr/it/ja/pt-BR
drift invisible. Now locales are auto-discovered from src/i18n/locales/, and a
STRICT list (de, zh-CN, zh-TW — currently in parity) gates CI while the rest
report informationally until their drift is caught up. ja notably has 27 real
placeholder bugs worth fixing before promotion to strict.
Search field at the top of Settings now finds Sidebar Links,
Spoolman, Spool/Color Catalog, all four Failure Detection
sections, Email auth (Advanced + SMTP test), 2FA (TOTP, Email
OTP, Linked Accounts), SSO/OIDC, LDAP Server Config, and the
four Backup sub-cards (GitHub, History, Local, Scheduled).
Replaces the hardcoded searchIndex array in SettingsPage.tsx
with a module-level registry (frontend/src/lib/settingsSearch.ts).
Each settings card calls registerSettingsSearch(...) at module
scope, so adding a new card means adding one colocated line
instead of editing a distant central array. Anchor ids were
added to the corresponding Card elements in the affected
components so scrollIntoView lands on the right section.
