What's Changed
- QoL improvement: Orca Slicer now remembers each printer's filament, bed, and process settings, making it easier to switch between multiple printers
- Single wall on top surface for Arachne by @Noisyfox in github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/1583 ↗ — image
- Pressure Advance: add Ellis' pattern method for pressure advance calibration by @thewildmage in github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/1547 ↗
image
- Some other updates for Pressure Advance calibration:
- Speed: All PA calibrations now use minimum speed at 100 mm/s (still subject to max flow rate) as PA effect is not obvious under slow speed (one also probably doesn't need it when printing at 45 mm/s speed).
- PA tower: Only one wall will be printed for most nozzles (0.4 upwards).
- Make Overhang Printable by @Noisyfox and @odie5533 in github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/1615 ↗ — This feature based on Cura's ConicalOverhang algorithm by @BagelOrb

- Add Lift Z only Above/Below, On Surface (e.g. Only on Top) by @iFallUpHill in github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/1562 ↗
- Optimise sandwich wall mode when perimeters are shared with multiple islands(Arachne only) by @igiannakas in github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/1352 ↗
Previously, in cases where sandwich mode was used, Orca would fallback to inner-outer wall order in certain edge cases. Now, it will fallback to outer-inner wall order.
