yes i've seen this file and read it before, but hard to undestand where is the actual calculation, for example- does it slice walls and decides that it needs x parallel lines for it, and than based on the nozzle decides how many really should the printer head do, or what? id like to write wy own way to calculate the needed path to print.

hey, im trying to understand how does the engine calculates a path to print, using the nozzel size. for example, if the printer head needs to print 3 lines in a narrow space to create the desired wall thickness, where or how does it decide to print 3 lines next to each other? i guess if i know the thickness and the nozzel size i can calculate it, but where can i see it, in order to add my own calculations?

im trying to generate my own polygons of a given layer, meaning changing the way the engine creates layers polygons based on parameters i had added to the menu. where exactly do the engine split a layer into polygons and how? i would like to understand it in order to try adding my own way. thanks

hey, i would like to add an algorithm od my own to calculate the best route for the printers head to print a layer. how can i do this? in which file does the engine get a layer and finding the path to do? also, i'd like to add some parameters to this algorithm, from the user, so how can i recive them?(i've added them using the fdmprinter.def) TIA!

hey all, i have downloaded cura source code for windows 10. i would like to add a new category to the print settings menu, like we have walls, infill, etc.. where\ which are the files (.py) that i need to deal with? (as in the pic below, i would like to add my own "feature" here, so i would love to know how to do it. TIA!
