RE: PrusaSlicer 2.9.4 with built-in filament calibration
Version 1.7.2 does the trick. Thanks! I'm a bit surprised that quite a bit less retraction is needed than the default recipes from Prusa, but more time will tell.
RE: PrusaSlicer 2.9.4 with built-in filament calibration
I'm far from the end of this adventure but what I'm learning is that optimizing individual parameters doesn't guarantee that the whole mess works well with prints that are very different than the test objects. I'm also thinking that another test for bridging should be added. You can see a lot in the temperature tower, but something is needed to set the various bridging parameters without a huge amount of iteration. It might be more difficult than need be as I think Prusaslicer may need more bridging parameters than it has, or maybe a different strategy than it uses. Some of the results in YouTube vids don't seem achievable with Prusaslicer or the Core One, regardless of settings. But, as is often the case, the bug in the system might be me.

For the Pressure Advance calibration, would it be possible to add also PA line and PA pattern? Thanks!

That's a little harder to do since typically they are done by generating g-code then running a post-processing script. Please create an enhancement request here: https://github.com/hyiger/PrusaSlicer/issues and I'll have a look.
RE: PrusaSlicer 2.9.4 with built-in filament calibration
Sent a bug report as I'm not sure the YOLO plates are working right but, as usual, it could be me. Also, I've been reading about Prusaslicer 0.95 extrusion multiplier due to some calculation bug. Not sure how/if that affects anything when calibrating.

Nope, it's not you. The YOLO plates are suffering from a code regression. The problem is that YOLO relies on an "Archimedean Chords" top fill pattern settings that for some crazy reason seemed to have not existed in PrusaSlicer 2.9.3 when I started this exercise, so they were implemented in code... badly. They are clearly in 2.9.5 so I don't know if A) they've been there forever and I somehow missed it or B) it snuck into the latest releases.
I'll have a look at it today and fix it up.

@hyiger It took me a few days to get to it, but yes, the YOLO plates are working! Thanks.

I’m thinking about working on an enhancement to YOLO to make it a 2 pass. So a course adjustment with maybe +/- 5 then a fine adjustment of +/-1
RE: PrusaSlicer 2.9.4 with built-in filament calibration
I don't know how well I can resolve the differences. Then there's the issue of how well it agrees with the wall measurement of the box/cube. I'm not always thrilled with the top-most layer of my prints, thus my interest in the YOLO plates. There seems to be fine interplay of settings here, starting with the nozzle temperature. There's a large range that looks good on the temperature towers, but I have to pick something and stick with it, as everything flows down from that. Or so I think. 😀
