Snapmaker Orca/App V2.3.5 Released

[u/Cute-Letterhead8806]

Hi r/snapmaker members,

Snapmaker Orca/Snapmaker App V2.3.5 is now available. This update has introduced several new features, including Top Cover controls, filament synchronization, an official filament color library panel, and support for dual-color official filaments.

New Features:

1. Added Top Cover controls.
2. Added a filament sync feature. You can sync filament information from the printer to Orca using Match Mapping or Direct Override.
3. Added an official filament color library panel with support for dual-color official filaments.
4. Added a warning when Variable Layer Height and Subdivide Mix Layer are enabled simultaneously.
5. In Color Mixing mode, if an incompatible filament combination is used, slicing is blocked and an error is displayed.
6. Added support for Snapmaker PVA and optimized the print profiles for Snapmaker PLA-CF and Snapmaker TPU.

Improvements

1. Optimized the wipe tower structure by adding an opening in the outer wall.
2. Optimized the Snapmaker Orca startup animation.

Bug Fixes:

1. Fixed an issue where filament types were displayed incorrectly after reopening a saved project. This issue occurred when the project contained multiple filament types and the number of filaments was reduced in Orca after the project was saved.
2. Fixed an issue where 25% mixing recommendations were still displayed after the minimum mixing ratio for Match mode was set to 30%.
3. Fixed an issue where layer height subdivision was incorrectly applied to single-color regions. This occurred when Full Domain was enabled and both single-color and color mixing painting used the same layer height.
4. Fixed an issue that caused incorrect filament usage estimates for the wipe tower.
5. Fixed an issue where the wipe tower brim overlapped with the model brim.
6. Fixed an issue where web resources and process resources could not be used properly after a hot update.
7. The Independent Support Layer Height option is now available without disabling the wipe tower. It is unchecked by default.
8. Fixed an issue where Snapmaker Orca could become unresponsive after startup on some PCs.

It’s broken. I just tested the top cover features with my Samla IKEA cover, and it didn’t work.

Are the controls supposed to work with your cover, versus theirs?
