  • fixed the bug where trailing 0s were dropped for BfB (CubeX) firmware
2017-10-06

Hello Jonathan,

Please take a look at the robustness of the solid infill / gap fill in Release 1.6 vs 1.6.1 and 1.6.2. Note the smaller gaps in the letters in 1.6 vs 1.6.1 and 1.6.2.

Release 1.6 had good solid / gap infill as shown here:

Hello Jonathan,

It is a question about the setting items added in Ver.1.6.

Is the material profile "Shrink% xy" and "% z" a reminder?
This setting item seems to have no effect on g-code.

I believe this is a feature that is not shown in the preview, however, the adjustment is made to the g-code when you Save the file. The values you put in to XY and Z are percentages representing part shrinkgage so they will make your g-code larger. If you save the code with and without shrinkage (use a large value like 25% so it's easier to see) you will see the difference in the part either by looking at the g-code or by opening it gcode.ws

Hello mhackney,
It is exactly what I wanted to know.
Thank you very much.
