Prusa Slicer - modificators size

Picture worth a thousand words. Why is teh cylinder size reported as 13mm diameter, when it clearly printed 16mm?

RE: Prusa Slicer - modificators size

I created a 16 cm diameter cylinder in FreeCad (version 0.19)  and loaded it into Prusa Slicer (version 2.0.0 win64).  My sizes in the slicer are 15.94 x 15.97 - pretty close to 16 cm.

I'm going to guess the problem is not the slicer but your CAD program. I recall seeing thread sometime back that a CAD program was having some difficulty with sizes being right.  I cannot recall if the fix was to the CAD program or just resizing in the slicer.

RE: Prusa Slicer - modificators size

There's a known bug in 2.0.0 that has to do with the scale factors not catching up to what a user has done with scale.  Especially when changing from platform to preview modes.

It appears to be fixed in the v2.1.0-RC build I am using.
