Snapmaker Studio v0.4.0-beta.20.2 — Manual Cost Entry + Collision Honesty

Independent open-source project — not affiliated with or endorsed by Snapmaker.
"Snapmaker" is a trademark of its respective owner.

Installed-app acceptance surfaced two honesty gaps on complex multi-object 3MF
projects. This patch fixes both and is honest about what Studio does not yet check.

Fixes

  • Cost & Pricing Doctor — manual grams entry. When Studio can't read
    volume/grams from a file, the calculator no longer dead-ends on an "unavailable"
    card. It now shows the assumptions form so you can enter grams from Orca's
    filament estimate; with grams entered and Recalculate, you get material cost,
    suggested price and profit. Blank grams with no estimate shows "Enter grams to
    calculate cost" rather than fake numbers. Results only update on Recalculate.
  • Object spacing / collisions are honest now. Studio does not yet verify
    object-to-object spacing for multi-part 3MF layouts. The Project and Compatibility
    Doctors now say so plainly — "object spacing / collisions are not verified by
    Studio yet; open in Snapmaker Orca and check for too-close / collision warnings
    before slicing" — and no longer report a multi-object plate as ready / no issues.
  • Support enforcers vs support. The Compatibility Doctor now warns when a model
    uses support enforcers while support generation is turned off, so those regions
    don't print unsupported.

Honest limits

  • Studio prepares U1 profile copies for review in Snapmaker Orca — it does not
    slice, and it does not claim collision-free or finished output for complex
    3MF / multi-object layouts.
  • Object placement, spacing and bed-boundary fit remain advisory and must be
    verified in Snapmaker Orca before slicing.
  • Originals are never modified — preparing a model writes a new copy.
  • No print-success guarantees.
