Solved Is there a way to generate a test for a variety of temperatures for a new material?

    I mean, I'm writing some code now. It's going to be sloppy-ish (Grab text from Slic3r gcode, duplicate and distribute to bunch of objects with different temp settings) and I was hoping there was a clean-ish method already out there.

    I'll have mine up in an hour, anyway. Fun project to do.

    Not in Slic3r itself, but if you are printing different objects at different temps instead of a single object with temps that change based on height, you could define multiple extruders and multiple filaments of the same type with different temps. <<< This is not a reasonable solution, editing gcode is actually easier.

    This is typically done in simplify3d since it has a nice utility for defining layer height temperatures. Someone here would be willing to slice whatever model you want.

    Oh, geeze... I need to remember to close my threads.... :p

    Mike, It's good to know that I can find people to help me. I'd like to have my own tools, though.
