Hi!
I just started to develop plugins for Cura as I would need a shrinkage ratio that scales up the model.
I would like to add a setting that would be called XY shrinkage percentage that shoud be between 0 and 3% and I would add the multiplication of this percentage by the resizing of the model so that it would scale silently in X and Y and the user would still be able to resize his model using the tools on the left. Sadly, I am still a beginner in the development world but I have been able to create the plugin so that it would be displayed in Cura.
Now, I am in trouble for displaying the custom setting. I used the ZOffsetPlugin from fieldOfView to have a template: https://github.com/fieldOfView/Cura-ZOffsetPlugin/blob/35394c4f59b5a18f55bd471d7ea8c5012182c323/ZOffsetPlugin.py#L22 but it seems like it's not working as I don't see my setting appear.
Here is my repo is anybody could please take a look: https://github.com/iFrostizz/ShrinkageCompensationPlugin/tree/main/ShrinkageCompensationPlugin
Also, I am conscient that the setting is already in Cura but not available so maybe in the next update ?? But I am having fun learning these types of things 🙂
Thank you very much, have a nive day !
Adding a custom setting to Cura to modify the size.

That worked, cool thanks! 🙂
Also, I feel like the plugin devellopment sphere is a bit closed. What about creating a Discord server for Ultimaker Cura with support channel as well as devellopers channels, just like Octoprint does ? That would definitely make the community grow.
Also, it was not
fdmprinter.dev.jsonbut fdmprinter.def.json.
