Introduction
These set of functions will help in better visualization of the GCode.
Show top layer only
As its name implies, only the top layers will be shown and the printed segment of the object below it. This is useful if you want to inspect a particular layer. In case of older computers it helps to reduce the GPU workload too. Please be aware that if you load a GCode without model, there will be no model under the layer.
Show model outlines
Turning on this function will result in displaying the original 3D model displayed transparently over the GCode. It's great to check the relation between the model and the printed object. Examine which features, details are omitted from the print due the physical restriction of the printing technology.
GCode top roundness
Helps in visualizing the GCode segments by adding a rounded look to them. This is not an on/off state feature, but it has four different roundnesses starting from completely flat to completely round. By clicking on its icon multiple times, it will cycle through all these states.
GCode contour
Gives a contour to all the GCode segments making them less homogeneous, so it helps highlight the outlines.
Without a artificial contour the view is more photorealistic but it is harder to recognize the distinct extrusion segments.
Show travels
Shows all the travel movements of the print head, where no extrusion happening.
