5:First layer should have a different sequence, it should print longest lines first as the anchor for small details, it would greatly improve first layer reliability

Not sure about the rest but def this one.

RE: PrusaSlicer and feature requests

I use PrusaSlicer at home with my Prusa Mk3 printer. I'm switching over to use it at work with my Fusion3 F410C printer, because Simplify3D is not great, and neither is the new "Reactor" software they've replaced it with. However, in order for my printer's webpage and LCD screen to work correctly, I need the following comments in my G-Code:

; Build time: {print_time}
; Filament length: {used_filament}mm

Otherwise, the webpage and/or screen glitch or freeze up, because they're looking for these values through the code.

Unfortunately, these parameters aren't available in the custom GCode in PrusaSlicer. The print_time and used_filament variables are only available for constructing the output filename. My request is that these become available for use in the custom GCode as well (either start or end would work for me).

I realize that coding this may be a chicken-and-egg problem, but it would be very helpful to me.

RE: PrusaSlicer and feature requests

I would like to have the ability to change the output options for all presets with one modification.

Current filename: {input_filename_base}_{layer_height}mm_{filament_type[0]}_{printer_model}_{print_time}.gcode

I would like to have the Filament also in the filename: {input_filename_base}_ {filament_settings_id[0]}_{layer_height}mm_{filament_type[0]}_{printer_model}_{print_time}.gcode

It is doable like that, but I can not change the preset to always output the name like that. I also can not change the system presets, so this modification, while it is possible to do, has to be done every time and takes as much or more time than just manually inputting it in the name.

Would be nice for the Perimeters setting to accept fraction values (.5) like in ideaMaker

A fraction value would add an extra perimeter in periodically to improve the strength of the model.
If one would set the value of 2.5, the number of perimeters would be 2 and 3 in alternative layers.

RE: PrusaSlicer and feature requests

selectively paint faces for fuzzy skin.

Already easy.

Create the desired face as a silhouette, save as .SVG  then open your model, add modifier, select the SVG, scale and place then add the fuzzy skin setting...

Cheeri,

RE: PrusaSlicer and feature requests

better for me to ask first rather that writing long paragraph but this is not the correct place, thanks

No, the ONLY place for a feature request is github.  

The forum is a great place to discuss a request before hand as it may already be possible to do what you want or the exact form might change after discussion and several sets of eyes on it.  But the only place to actually make a request is the github.

RE: PrusaSlicer and feature requests

This is already requested as a feature since basically forever ago (2018)    https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues/1011

Devs at the time didn't think it of much value but when it was added to Super Slicer (a fork of PS) I used it all the time and found it quite useful for locking in the infill to the walls.
