I have an scad design of a cable chain link that Cura doesn't seem to be able to lay flat. I fired up a calculator and wrote some code to rotate and flatten it and it works fine.
Not complaining, but Cura 3.3.1 had a hell of a time dealing with footprinting this shape. What I can do is offer it up for testing purposes.
Lines 87 and 88 are commented out, these are the lines that rotate and flatten the model. It prints fine with those, without it the model does not flatten once rotated. It seems to but the print fails and it's obvious by the footprint that we aren't on the same wavelength!
Hmm, I can't upload an scad file, if I don't do that you lose the metrics. Let me know if you want the design and how I can send it to you.
Thanks for making this excellent software available.
