Great Work!! On the latest release Guys!!! To Tim and all the other contributors, thank you!! To all the guys who Beta tested it Thank You! The new icons are also really cool...

It's such a spectacular improvement over the last release... Really love the new features and tools. I've no doubt that you'll work out the few Bugs (sorry, undocumented Features) before too long...

Best Regards,

Yes, thanks for the great job, everyone! Pete, Glen, Tim(gasmasher), 3dmon(Shawn), tvcasualty(Eric) and Mark&Trish; and anyone else who's help we won't know about. :mrgreen:

For those of you who are not programmers, you cannot know how difficult it can be to produce a piece of work that does not have some what we call "Bugs" in it.

The code takes many branches during its operation executing instructions it has been given. As such, there often many different paths that can wind up at the same destination and along the way, parameters and inputs dictate how the code will branch.

It is nearly impossible to test every possible combination that the code will eventually execute.

There will probably always be bugs in the code, especially when it is constantly being updated to add new and additional features.

I was pretty critical of version 920, primarily because it was rewritten in a fashion that made backward compatibility an issue. But Tim quickly came up with solutions and within a week, he had addressed my concerns. Methods were quickly put into place to be able to switch from one version to another to allow us to regenerate gcode from older files while the backward compatibility issue was being fixed.

I have now spent enough time playing with 921 to know that the additional features save a tremendous amount of time in working up a file. I would be hard pressed to go back to 918 for any reason now.

There are still a lot of enhancements that will be implemented over time, a few bug fixes here and there of course, but the phlatscript has come a long way since I first began using it.

We owe, and especially I owe, Tim a big round of applause. He has been able to resolve problems quickly as they have been brought to his attention and 921 has some very nice features that are going to make our lives easier.

And thanks too to everyone else who has contributed their time and effort to report problems and test different combinations of inputs. Working as a team, these folks are improving the Phlat Experience for us all.

 

Again, great job Tim, without your efforts none of this would have happened! I'm happy to be a part of it all!

 

Tim is so good at this, that he read my mind a while back and incorporated my idea into the latest version before I even posted it on the wish list. Very impressive.

To everyone who has had a hand in writing and updating the script THANKS for all your hard work!

I tried to post a message a while back but the gremlins ate it. So lets try again.

I real big thanks to all that made this possible. I remember as a kid saying if only it would be as easy to print stuff out like this. What do you know it is. Now as an adult I am having so much fun living my childhood dreams. ;-)

Especially the new version of the phlatscript it has made getting the stuff out of my head and onto the foam so much easier.

I can't thank you enough.

 

Fantastic Guys!!! 922 is a dream to use!! not hit any new snags with it yet..... It seems to be very stable, and the output is working fine for me. It does seem to have fixed the issues with the last release.

Thanks yet again for all your hard work. Thanks Tim for driving it forward and thanks to the rest of the code team for all your hard work. You guys are a bunch of diamonds!

I must say, really thanks for the phlatscript

 

That sounds AWESOME Buk!! I cant wait myself!! It is already a great tool, but to keep adding to the PS just brings more excitement to the design end of things, because we know the final product will be reliable!!
THANK YOU TIM AND STAFF for these awesome updates!!

Take care
