ColorPrint and Simplify3D
Is it possible to get a version of ColorPrint based on layers in stead of height? I have to use Simplify3D for other reasons and Simplify3D doesn't show height in the preview.
Or maybe someone knows how to show height in the preview of Simplify3D?
Re: ColorPrint and Simplify3D
If your setup uses constant layer height, you can simply multiply layer height by layer number. 🙂 It's not that convenient, but works as a quick workaround.

Yep, I've been doing that. The problem is I sometimes use different layer heights.
I don't have great knowledge of Gcode, but I think it should be an easy thing to add?

It is very simple. Just add a line in the GCode at a layer change: M600
You can go a bit further and remove the first prime of hte layer, but that is not necessary.
As long as you have comments included in the GCode file, the layer height will be easy to find (search string: "Z=x.xx"
