How to rotate wipe tower?

I'm printing a large square-shaped object and would like to rotate the wipe tower so the long side is running down the y-axis, is this possible in Slic3r 1.3.5.16?

Re: How to rotate wipe tower?

You can try to swap values in the "Width" and "Per color change depth fields". Its not a rotation, but it should solve your problem.

btw. 1.36.0 is out, you should update

Thanks, that works in preview mode.

I don't see it here: http://www.prusa3d.com/drivers/ and I don't know how to install it from github. Is it out of beta?

You can download the zip/tar/.. files from here: https://github.com/prusa3d/Slic3r/releases (scroll down a bit)

Cool, I wonder when it'll go up on the official drivers page, hopefully soon! I look forward attempting to print this tiger using "5% concentric infill printed with different extruder":

You dont need latest Slic3r release for that.

Do you like that tiger? It was an experiment :-).
