[CuraEngine mesh_rotation_matrix to rotate 180 degrees]

Hi,

I am trying to rotate an object before slicing using CuraEngine.

However, if i try to rotate 180 degrees (-s mesh_rotation_matrix="[[1,0,0],[0,-1,0],[0,0,-1]]") slicing fails.

Without rotation slicing works as expected

Snippet of the output:

"

Progress:inset+skin:1:1 0.276473%

Layer count: 1

Progress: inset+skin accomplished in 0.000s

Starting support...

Removing 1 layers because they are empty

Stopping process because there are no non-empty layers.

Progress: support accomplished in 0.000s

Starting export...

;FLAVOR:Marlin

;TIME:6666

;Filament used: 0m

"

Is there anyone who has an idea what I'm doing wrong. Or is this a bug in CuraEngine?

[Different gcode files [CuraEngine/Cura]]

Hi,

I did not succeed so far in retrieving identical information from the Cura windows application and CuraEngine and would appreciate some help.

I using CuraEngine 2.4.0 (git clone https://github.com/Ultimaker/CuraEngine.git && git checkout 2.4.0).

And the windows version 2.4.0 from Cura.

I use the CuraEngine to retrieve slicing information like print time and amount of filament used for .stl files.

I copied the definition files from C:\Program Files\Cura 2.4\resources\definitions and C:\Program Files\Cura 2.4\resources\extruders to the directory /var/tmp/curadef to be used by CuraEngine.

I copied the settings from the cura.log file (...\AppData\Local\cura).

I used the printer definition fdmprinter.def.json (as in the connect line in cura.log)

In the Cura windows application I selected a custom FDM printer with default values

Are all settings in the cura.log and the printer files?

What settings am I missing?

How can I find those settings from the Cura windows app?
