Hi everyone,

 

My name is Jacob. I'm a relatively new 3d printer engineer, and I have a lot of questions. I have a project that requires me to look into the source code of Cura to figure out how the software imlpements the infill patterns. Specifically, I need to understand how the code implements the infill angle inputs. I don't know exactly how this works, but I've started looking through the source code files and examining where this variable is called.

 

If someone could mentor me or explain to me a little about how the classes work and how the source is implemented, I would be so grateful.

 

Let me know if that sounds good,

Jacob

    If you have any questions, it's best to post them on github. Thats where are the developers hang out.
