3D GCode Viewer integrated with DWC

danym21

@Sindarius
is it possible to have this also in DWC 3.1.1 for the Duet 3?

PCR

@Sindarius any possibility to update to 3.1.1

Sindarius

@PCR I will start looking at updating my branch of the DWC with my 3D Viewer here soon. It has been a while since I updated it.

PCR

Or as a Plugin with 3.2 ;)))

Sindarius

@PCR I've been waiting on that for over a year. I'll see if I want to spend the time converting it when that happens. For now...

In a thread someone said something about that.

@Sindarius Works great! Thank you for that

Sindarius

@PCR It's possible/probable they are developing their own 3d viewer for the DWC. The drive for my original development was that I needed the ability to see the model but also be able to see a color mixing approximation based on color mixing gcode on my M3D Crane Quad mixing head. I also use it when I have a print that just has several tools for my set of extruders, so it should work great for something like a tool changer. Not sure what they have worked on but I am sure it'll be good.

by simply changing the colors loaded into the extruder I get a nice approximation of what the gradients / colors will look like.

Sindarius

Did some poking around at the 3.2 development baseline and it looks like they are using this package for their upcoming viewer.

@Sindarius The SBC Version do not work ;( it "hangs" at downloading Gcode

Sindarius

@PCR I don’t have a duet 3 nor a pi setup to test. Is there any message in the console? I wonder if it is the issue where you had to upload the web client twice for it to take.

PCR

@Sindarius i think i found the problem.
The SBC Version want to download the file via the
GET http://192.168.178.36/rr_download?name=0:/gcodes/lpc_adapter_case_bottom_0.2mm_PLA_MK3S_2h6m.gcode
command.

For the Duet SBC it should be

GET http://192.168.178.36/machine/file/0:/gcodes/lpc_adapter_case_bottom_0.2mm_PLA_MK3S_2h6m.gcode

In the browser it will download the file via the last command

@Sindarius

Very cool. I like the multi color implementation. Looks better than the visualizer on 3.2

So would be cool if this will also be available as an Plug In for 3.2. On my 3.2 build from yesterday, christian got the plugin system to work.

Sindarius

@PCR Thanks for looking into this. I will start looking at what it takes to make sure that the URL is correct for the SBC version. Hopefully I will have some time today/tomorrow to make the changes to it.

PCR

Thank you! honestly like your ones more than the one from 3.2

PCR

made this change to the fork of you!

it works now on the SBC. But i cannot say it its "enough"

P-C-R committed to P-C-R/DuetWebControl

Update viewer.js

Sindarius

@PCR That'll work for the SBC but then it will break the SD. I am looking at a way to detect if the DWC is SBC or SD and use that as a parameter in the viewer so both will work.

Sindarius

@PCR

If you could give this a shot and let me know. I added some code that will hopefully help determine if the DWC is SBC or SD and set an appropriate parameter for the viewer.

                return
            except:
                print(self._base_url," does not appear to be a RRF2 or RRF3 printer", file=self.sys.stderr)
                return

This was the logic @Danal code. RIP
