Release notes for 0.5.4 (2011-11-30)
A new juicy release is ready!
New features:
- distinct speeds for perimeters, infill, solid infill and bridges
- warn about non-manifold or dirty models
- allow solid fill layers to be zero
- new –extrusion-axis option
Improvements:
- high tolerance for dirty models; it will attempt to repair any missing layer (all Prusa Mendel parts now slice correctly!)
- options on command line now override loaded config file
- note used settings in exported gcode
Changes:
- all feed rate options were renamed using the word speed
Bugfixes:
- concentric infill threw errors
- plate was lifted erroneously at Z change
- fill density = 0 prevented generation of extra solid layers
- some bridges, when very close to other solid surfaces, could lead to overlapping infill
- the extrusion width ratio setting produced wrong flow rate sometimes
- removed sparse errors
- could not read back a config file with empty start or end gcode
