Customisable Tab size #153

Open phillipthelen opened 5 months ago

phillipthelen commented 5 months ago

Currently the tabs have a fixed size of 15.85mm deep and 42mm width (if not set to full width). When generating bins that have 1x1 trays, the tabs take up a lot of the surface area making it harder to reach into the bin. For using slimmer labels, this could be changed to a customisable variable to save filament and make smaller trays more open.

If people agree this would be a useful setting to have, I can work on implementing it. Since it already is a static variable in standard.scad, it shouldn't be too hard making a custom option.

That PR has been merged but seems to only work for bins created using the OpenSCAD modules, not with the main bin generator (at least not that I could find). An update that exposes the tab sizes for the main bin generator would be great.
