holy f J22, over 10000 lines of scad for a hook? :D
<buZz>
oh no, just under
<buZz>
117 in the design, 9587 in the library :P
<myosotis>
buzz, I posted a simple 20 line c clip that took less than a second to render... 2 hours later this channel had it optimized to a 100 lines and 40 min of render time
<J22>
ham5urg using i little overlap is save in render it will be fine so this is just in preview .. you can use render() .. also the overlap need to increase with viewing distance
<J22>
render()difference(){
<J22>
cube(20);
<J22>
cube(5);
<J22>
}
<J22>
i am using double sized object as subtrahend with center true so a 10mm hole cylinder(20,d=5,center=true);

J22 climbers are silly people and will decide 25mm is overkill. No idea if buZz climbs
<Scopeuk>
ham5urg looks fairly reasonable, those artefacts are normally solved with small offsets, 9 times out of 10 they also fix themselves when you do a proper render with f6
<J22>
Scopeuk yeah they only need the fingertip

I just bought a 3d printer (elegoo neptune 2) and installed prusaslicer. Is this a recommended combination? Do you use an IRC channel for 3d printing?
<J22>
there are like 5 slicer .. they all work .. CURA and SLICER .org are the big open source
<ham5urg>
prusasclicer was in the devuan-repository. Will try it.
<ham5urg>
*is in the...
<J22>
afaik prusa is a slicer clone
<J22>
and not open
<J22>
in the end it is about to spot a problem and know what setting to change..
<J22>
first thing is to have a well calibrated hardware (printer)
<Scopeuk>
ham5urg there is #reprap which has a lot of 3d printer chat
<Scopeuk>
with slicers I would generally recommend try a couple see what you like working with then just stick with it
<Scopeuk>
the functional stuff is very similar between them although at any given time some will have some slightly better version of a specific feature

but i thought there was some company stuff with prusaslicer .. but if it is open even better
<J22>
maybe it was that their improvements didn't get feed upstream into slic3r

no idea what "company stuff" means. josef prusa runs a successful business, and has been dedicated to open source the whole time as far as I have seen

Is there a way to control the font size in OpenSCAD's menus? I know the editor text size is configurable. I am interested in configuring font sizes for the rest of the user-interface text.

<J22>
isn't that controlled by the OS?
drfff has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
<teepee>
yep, it should be
<teepee>
although there are limits with containerized apps like Snap or Flatpak, but there's nothing in OpenSCAD specifically
<Guest43>
Thank you. My hard-of-eyesight friend uses MS Windows (I don't). Anyone know where the Windows setting for this would be?
<J22>
desktop rightclick
<teepee>
it should react to the windows scaling settings whatever those are called
<Guest43>
Thank you much!
<teepee>
IIRC win10 has some sort of slider for 100% - 125% ... or so
