Nozzle movement with to G2/G3 (aka Arc Welder)

Open Diego-Rocha opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

When a arc/circular movement happens the "showNozzle" feature don't work as indeed! It just move as a straight line ignoring the right arc/circular path. This is easily noticeable when a Circular object is post-processed using the Arc Welder plugin

As far as I can tell it is working as intended. Perhaps try a different gcode model and see if it behaves any differently?

Can confirm anything extrusion thats G2/G3 the nozzle will traverse the model in a diagonal straight line instead of following the arc that G2/G3 is instructing the real tool to do.
