Scale module scales extrusion width, not just model width #7

Closed cdaringe closed 13 years ago

cdaringe commented 13 years ago

not 100% sure if this is an error or not, but here's a hypothetical.

scale 1.0 on a 10mm part with 0.5mm extrusion width. SF will output a motion path of 9mm.

when the scale is doubled, rather than creating a 20mm geometry for a 0.5mm extrusion, it creates a 18mm extrusion, as though it were expecting a 1mm extrusion width

It is not meant for real scaling but just for corrections... It scales after the slicing is done and scales each slice seperately. So its a mahsup between scaling and offsetting...
