New features:

  • #263 New form "Projector" shows the 2D-view in fix scale, to be shown on the workpiece with an projector [Machine control - Projector].
  • Additional forms (e.g. setup-form or text-creation) are not pinned to the front anymore, but can be brought to front via menu-button.
    To get the old mode (always in front) enable [Setup - Program appearance - 2D-View/Editor/Misc - Misc "Show other forms always in front"]
  • Changed layout in main GUI: Select use of Router/Plotter/Laser to control spindle speed / PWM adjustment

  • Scan height-map: new option to scan just one axis and extrude the other - Application on a rotation axis: scan along the rotation axis, extrude along the perimeter.

Improovements:

  • If program was not installed, but just copied to "C:\program...", access rights are making trouble, when storing data.
    Fix: if the path "C:\program..." is recognized, a data-folder in User/documents will be created.
  • SVG-import: take care of pen-width scaling
  • Recognize USB/COM disconnection - save streaming status
  • Form 'Convert Image' rearrangement of the controls, conversion to grayscale or black and white for better laser support
  • Improoved exception handling
