In openscad it might be better to just structure your loops with an
integer as a loop parameter if you want to do this kind of stuff.
So instead of:
for (x=[.10:.10:1.5])
for (y=[.15:.15:1.5]) {
if (x % .20) ...
}
you do:
for (ix=[1:1:15])
for (iy=[1:1:10]) {
x = ix * .10;
y = iy * .15
if (ix % 2) ...
}
Good, practical advice Roger, I'll try to remember it next time I do
some repetitive thing that increments a size or??? This may not be
optimum, but I do have it working. And about to start my 2nd run with a
new printer, an QIDI X-MAX3, a heavy beast with a 325mm*3 build volume,
runs klipper FAST by remote control. And sorting a slicer I've never
seen before, a bit like sorting rattlesnakes. If I don't get bit, a
don't learn...
Thank, take care & stay well.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
