Dimension adds Adrian's extruder distance E value to the gcode movement lines, as described at: http://blog.reprap.org/2009/05/4d-printing.html and in Erik de Bruijn's conversion script page at: http://objects.reprap.org/wiki/3D-to-5D-Gcode.php The dimension manual page is at: http://www.bitsfrombytes.com/wiki/index.php?title=Skeinforge_Dimension Operation Settings Extrusion Distance Format Choice Absolute Extrusion Distance Relative Extrusion Distance Examples

`Operation`

The default 'Activate Dimension' checkbox is off. When it is on, the functions described below will work, when it is off, the functions will not be called. Settings Extrusion Distance Format Choice Default is 'Relative Extrusion Distance'. In Adrian's description the distance is absolute, but since the relative distances are smaller than the cumulative absolute distances, I chose to make the default relative. Absolute Extrusion Distance When selected, the extrusion distance output will be the total extrusion distance to that gcode line. Relative Extrusion Distance When selected, the extrusion distance output will be the extrusion distance from the last gcode line. Examples The following examples dimension the file Screw Holder Bottom.stl. The examples are run in a terminal in the folder which contains Screw Holder Bottom.stl and dimension.py. > python dimension.py This brings up the dimension dialog. > python dimension.py Screw Holder Bottom.stl The dimension tool is parsing the file: Screw Holder Bottom.stl ..
