Repetier said: See pm. Sorry sir, but I do not understand your reply. Please expand and clarify what you want me to do.

Just a final FYI, import of 3ds works fine. Apparently, whatever warts my CAD system has in making an stl file does not carry over into making a 3ds file. I am not positive of the following but it appears that Cura may be doing a 3ds to stl convers…

Found and used the scaling. Took me a bit to pick up on the padlock icon and unlock the axes so I could change just the one axis. (I sometimes do poorly with icons). Scaling was successful and produced an acceptable part. Thank you for your able …

Will that work for 3DS files as well? I have a problem sourcing STL files and have moved to 3DS. Where in Host do I find the scaling settings? I am using Cura slicer, can I find the scaling in that as well? FYI, I opened a Gcode file to look at…

Can I do that scaling in Repetier ( X axis only) prior to slicing?
-
And now, disregard 2nd post as well. All is well, last gremlin found and killed, old and new Gcode files match exactly. As it turns out, Cura has 2 .ini files, 1 for print and 1 for filament. The old/new .ini's in filament were different. Copied…
-
Disregard previous post. Identified and fixed. (Parameter is controlled by an uncalibrated slider in Cura window.) Also did not solve my Gcode mismatch probelm, so we will move on to that. When I compare old and new Gcode files I find: All X, Y, …

I am comparing a text saved section of the registry between the old and new installation. That has been extremely useful to me in finding errors in the setup parameters. I am stymied on one entry for which I have an old/new mismatch and for which …
-
Exported only the Repetier block. I exported it both in the native registry format and as text. I had looked at the text and indeed it got only that block. It also appeared to match what I saw on the screen with regedit. The process itself appea…

Exported the Repetier block from the old machine registry, but when I attempted to import it into the new machine disaster struck. The import process thoroughly corrupted the registry. I had created a restore point just prior to the import, but ev…
-
Thank you for that additional guidance. I will chug thru that and see how it goes. If nothing else, the registry entries will give me guidance on any parameters I might otherwise miss. My plan is to create a very simple 3D part, run it thru the e…

What do I need to do to get the registry info from the current machine to the new machine? I'm not sure I want to plow thru the current registry and copy things by hand. Note that this is not a restore on the same machine but a move to new H/W…
-
Excellent. Found the rotation stuff, tried it out, just what I was looking for. I will leave the warts in the CAD system for another time (Actually, now I don't care other than taking the precaution of not doing part transformations. The mystery …

This AM I did some additional tests, still trying to determine a rule set. Trial 1 - Created a simple cube, shelled it out to a constant wall thickness, open at the top. single hole thru the bottom central to the part, single hole on the -Y face…
-
I see a number of faces and parts of the STL model that I can accept as purple (pale, but contrasted with a blue on the other faces. but I am hard pressed to call these "inside faces". Some of them are the vertical perimeter of the outside walls of…
-
As far as I can tell the model is manifold. I have hit into that in the past and Repetier warns that it is not manifold at import. It did not do so this time, so I assume it is OK. Is there some independent method to check for that? Some furth…
-
Yep, I'm fully aware of just how complex the optimization would be, that's kind of why I came here. I KNOW I can't do it. OK, good enough is good enough. Worth a try to ask.

Further information: This is a dead end. I find that the Intel chipset in my unit is not validated for OpenGL beyond V1.3. In short, I can't get there from here. I am going to change my plan and run from the Win10 machine which works fine and ha…
-
Add to my education. Where did that OpenGL package come from? Was it installed as part of the Repetier download, resident as part of the Win7 install, or downloaded after the Repetier install at the request of the installer? I assume resident fro…

Just opened the copy of Repetier running correctly on my Win10 machine and looked at the startup log. The log shows: 06:33:55.909 : OpenGL version:4.5.13399 Compatibility Profile Context FireGL 15.201.1151.1008 Definitely have a much newer one on t…

Completely unistalled the original, did an install, launched the program. Got the following in the log window (Cut/paste into notepad, copy into here): 13:03:25.996 : OpenGL version:1.4.0 - Build 8.14.10.1930 13:03:25.996 : OpenGL extensions:GL_EXT…

Further info. Just downloaded and installed on a new Win10 machine. It appears to be working correctly. Loads a file, shows it, left window seems to all work right.

Repetier said: If you speak about slicer settings, these are in files. Host setting it self is in registry. CuraEngine is in HOMDIR/AppData/local/Repetier-Host/CuraEngine and slic3r in HOME/AppData/Roaming/Slic3r or Slic3rPE for PrusaEngine. …
