Add better method of taking pictures for timelapse #1
Comments
Thank you so much, this'll be an awesome change for me as I rarely do single-material prints. |
Initial tests are not great: https://youtu.be/IkkxYEfXBdg I'm guessing that it's taking a long time to capture an image, or the loop is too slow. I'm going to test again with slightly different settings. |
Overnight test: https://youtu.be/FZtmdsI1kTg I think I'm capturing twice as many frames as necessary, so I'll adjust that and test again. |
I do not think the printhead switching method is perfect because of the variation in dual color models. For example, in the dual color 3DBenchy model, extruder 2 finishes the top 5 layers which will be missed by the timelapse function. Therefore, in my next test, I'm running a dual color benchy with a prime tower and a 1x1x48mm tall tower (the height of the full benchy) so that the head will definitely switch every single layer. |
Alright, here's the dual benchy test: https://youtu.be/xxXFMm01b7I It's short but sweet. The prime tower looks neat like that. I'm adding the Cura Project I used to create this dual benchy under tests/ |

I'll update it shortly to only use the PrintCore switching as a trigger. I'm starting tests now after checking the print head locations for switching PrintCores using 0130259
