  • rigging a machine
  • reverse kinematics
• autozoom
• play toolpath as animation
• arcs
• G0 (rapid move) follows polar coordinates and arcs where necessary
• G17 G18 G19 (plane selection) applies to G2 and G3 arc moves
• G68 ( rotate coordinate system ) usefull for G0 from center
• showing a range of layers

advanced toolpaths

• 6 DOF
• view different machine operations (temperature, feedrate, ...)

slicer

• convert geometry into slices
• convert slices into G-code
• infill patterns
  • dynamic infill density
• multiple walls
  • detect thin extrusions and space evenly / extrude thinner lines
• support structures
• align the start and stop points of consecutive loop
• feedrates
• extrusion speeds
• don't pass over the same point twice when closing a shape

settings

• import/export settings
• layer height
• variable layer height
• variable line thickness
• infill
