06:03 <guso78k> In the compilation scripts I see indications that  MAC Installation DMG's should be universal binaries(intel+silicon) whereas on the homepage there are just labelled intel. Will the downloaded DMG files also work in Apple Silicon ?

08:17 <teepee> guso78k: release is not universal, nightly builds are and should run on intel+m1+m2

08:20 <teepee> InPhase: nice crystals, although just 2 parts sounds like only a start ;)

13:56 <J24k> getting a thumbnail into a 3mf is quite easy - can't we automate this if saving a 3mf ?

15:15 <teepee> I would assume so, ideally with a preview that can be overridden

15:35 <J24k> just the default "reset view" ↦ "view all"  export png

15:35 <J24k> or customizable " take photo "

16:56 <Guest61> Question: Is there a configuration option switch from 'preview on file change' to 'render on file change'?   I'm using 'OpenSCAD version 2024.03.18' on osx.  I know there's the F6 hotkey to render, but I edit my scad files with VS Code and not directly in openscad so I'd have to switch apps then hotkey.  Thank you.

16:58 <teepee> no

16:59 <teepee> you can get a partial effect with "render() design();" at top level

17:27 <Guest61> Lovely. Thank you so much teepee!

17:41 <JJTechPrints> Thanks again for the quick help teepee. Decided to register a nick and hang out for awhile.

18:46 <J24k> now the first time i get EXPORT-ERROR: Can't add triangle to 3MF model.  without lazy union and with manifold

18:46 <J24k> (but roof is used - maybe this causing it)

18:48 <teepee> quite possible, it's known for some geometry issues. I think there is still an open patch that would need some review and decision

18:52 <J24k> maybe the issues with offset (float) and then into roof .. the strange thing there were 4 objects that are far apart and using roof on all 4 caused the error but using roof on one and the copy into the 4 places works

18:53 <J24k> but as the objects not together there shouldn't be any influence ( and i tried  to change distance, which doesn't helped)

18:54 <teepee> yeah, that is very strange

19:28 <ferdna> i cant compile openscad. It complaints about MCAD not installed.

19:28 <teepee> do recursive checkout

19:29 <ferdna> teepee, i would like to do MCAD as a separate install if possible

19:29 <ferdna> i have it installed to: /usr/share/openscad/libraries/MCAD/

19:31 <teepee> mcad is still used in the build folder for testing, if you don't care about that, you can skip it with -DENABLE_TESTS=OFF

19:31 <ferdna> awesome. thank you.

20:09 <ferdna> if i add the -DENABLE_TEST=OFF it throws this error: CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:1413 (add_sanitizers): Unknown CMake command "add_sanitizers".

20:09 <ferdna> :(

20:10 <teepee> hmm, I don't think that's intentional, but the sanitizers can probbly disabled too

20:12 <teepee> right, it's also a submodule

20:13 <teepee> you can't ignore submodules when cloing

20:13 <teepee> *cloning

20:23 <ferdna> ohhh ok

20:23 <ferdna> teepee, do you think something like this will work:

20:24 <ferdna> set(INTLIB_DIR "${CSD}/libraries") set(GLOLIB_DIR "/usr/share/openscad/libraries") set(LIBRARIES_DIR "${INTLIB_DIR};${GLOLIB_DIR}")

20:27 <teepee> what for, what is the problem with the submodule except some minor additional size

20:30 <ferdna> teepee, i would like my libraries in a global directory where users cant touch them.

20:30 <ferdna> but being able to install their own

21:17 <teepee> and how does that conflict with just doing a recursive checkout for building?

21:22 <teepee> openscad already supports a global /usr/share and user $home/..local folder

21:23 <ferdna> teepee, i got to go to work... bbl
