Slicer Settings Fan Control, Filament, Minimum Speed value. #5236

Closed m1zar closed 2 years ago

Bug Report

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Slicer Settings Side menu then the Fillament Tab and Select Advance menu level from the 3 pips menu.
  2. Scroll down to Minimum Speed Always. Default is 0 seconds.
  3. Mouse over that box and read the popup hint text.

Expected Behavior Would expect it to describe the value requirements for the Minimum Speed Always setting.

Actual Behavior It says: "The minimum speed at which the layer cooling fan will run, expressed as a percentage of full power, regardless of layer time."

So, either the popup message is right and it's actually a % of speed, which might explain why my fan doesn't run while printing as the default is 0. Or it is a number of seconds, which doesn't make sense logically, however the pop description does make sense, but the field is just named incorrectly. Either way it's some kind or error/bug.

Thank you. This has been fixed and will be part of the next build.

It should have be a % rather than seconds.
