Need help with Capture Command #79

Closed P0tth34d closed 1 year ago

P0tth34d commented 1 year ago

Hi there, First of all thank you very much for that new Timelapse Plugin. I was looking for a solution to remove the background out of my Videos for a long time because the Printer and the camera captures my wife at her desk is she is working from home.

It is a bit embarrassing but I cannot get the plugin taking Snapshots from snapshot Command. It works fine if i use the capture mode "Timer" But if I use Command and leave it as it is with "SNAPSHOT" it does not capture anything. I also tried "@ Snapshot" and "Snapshot" and "@ SNAPSHOT" (without the blank but if i do not add a blank here it tags a User called Snapshot :-) ) I use CURA as Slicer and also tried Prusa Slicer because of the "At Layer Change" is a bit more comfortable

Gcode Example: image

Outcome: image

I am very sure I am doing something wrong but I need someone to throw the solution in my face.

Dont worry it is not an urgent case but I bet you know how it feels if you do not find the issue.

Best regards, P0tth34d

OK Update after posting this Problem I found out that I did have a blank space in the GCode after Snapshot Holy moly that is now really embarrassing . I searched for at least one week now. Sometimes posting screenshots might be needed. Thank you anyways for this great plugin

Hi @P0tth34d ! I'm happy you fixed the problem 😃 And thank you for your input - maybe it would be a good idea to strip spaces when listening to snapshot commands. I think I'll include it in v1.3.0 which will come in a few days (along with some other great new features). If you have any further questions or problems, please don't hesitate to ask 👍
