Layer Rescue 1.0.1

First release on PyPI: pipx install layer-rescue.

Changed

• README links and images use full GitHub URLs, so the project page on PyPI shows them correctly.
• The README installs Intel Macs, Linux and other systems from PyPI instead of from source.
• Test write-ups play their videos from GitHub; the .mp4 files are no longer in the repository. The README shows a photo of the rescued test prints.

Fixed

• The release workflow and build scripts read the version without importing the package (the 1.0.0 release run failed before pyclipper was installed).

Layer Rescue 1.0.0

First stable release. Every mode has been tested on a real P1S; the write-ups are in docs/tests.

Added

• Untested setups can be tried at your own risk: jobs for other printers or with several filaments (AMS) are no longer refused outright. The window explains why the job is untested and asks you to accept the risks (CLI --allow-untested); the accepted risks are listed in the warnings. By-object printing and spiral vase are still refused.
• Multi-filament jobs resume with the filament slot that was active at the selected layer instead of always slot 0.
• Real-printer test write-ups in English and Turkish (docs/tests/), linked from the README.
• App icon for the window, the Windows .exe and installer and the macOS app (packaging/icon/make_icon.py redraws it).
• The window is available in English and Turkish. Switch with the English / Türkçe buttons at the top right; the change applies immediately and is remembered. On first start the language follows the system language.
• Error messages and warnings from the conversion are shown in the selected language (CLI output stays English).
• Insert mode (beta): seat a loose, broken or finished part in a holding wall and print on top of it. The wall is derived from the part's own sliced outline below the wall height (the opening only grows with height so the part can be lowered in), with clearance, brim and a lead-in chamfer. The job pauses (machine_pause_gcode, M400 U1 on the P1S) above the part, then continues with the retained-mode resume sequence and every Z shifted to the measured part height. The first layers on the part are printed hotter, slower and without part cooling. GUI tab with a top-view preview; CLI --part-height / --part-layer with --confirm-attended.
• Insert mode reprints the supports below the part height that carry supports above it (tree supports inside a hollow part or next to it), before the pause, only where the lowered part cannot hit them and only on top of support printed below. The wall keeps clear of them. --no-reprint-supports / GUI checkbox.
• Insert mode leaves 0.4 mm under the part's overhangs, so the part stands on its own bottom instead of resting on the wall, and the wall no longer fills the inside of hollow parts deeper than 3 mm.
• Insert-mode output validation: wall lines never inside the part's clearance, no XY move below the part top after the pause, nothing printed below the part top afterwards, bed and excluded-area checks, single object and no prime tower.
• macOS support: LayerRescue.app for Apple Silicon, built by the release workflow with packaging/macos/build.sh (not yet signed with a Developer ID). Intel Macs can install from source.
• Opening the app directly, without Bambu Studio, shows the command to paste into Post-processing Scripts.
• CI on Windows, macOS and Linux (Python 3.10–3.13).
• Release workflow: pushing a v* tag builds the Windows installer, the macOS app, the wheel and the sdist and publishes them on GitHub Releases with SHA-256 checksums. Optional PyPI upload.
• packaging/windows/build.ps1 to build the installer locally.
• Issue and pull request templates, code of conduct, release guide.

Changed

• README rewritten for first-time readers: what it can do, real-world tests, picking the layer, several objects, limitations and what's next, how to share results, and credits for the test models, with screenshots of the window. The Turkish README follows it.
• Clearer window: a file summary, a short explanation per tab, and numbered steps (where the print stopped, whether the printer was restarted, safety checks, options).
• The safety confirmations are grouped under a Safety checks heading that says what they are for. Only the check for the selected Z mode is shown, and Create G-code stays disabled until the required checks are ticked; the status line says what is missing.
• The resume tab shows the layer and Z that printing restarts at while you type.
• Insert tab: colour legend for the top view, preview result and warnings under Result, advanced settings next to the preview.
• core.py is split into gcode, machine_state, resume and fileio modules; layer_rescue.core still exports the same names.
• First runtime dependency: pyclipper (polygon offsets for the holding wall).
• The version is defined once in src/layer_rescue/_version.py.
• Installers are no longer committed to the repository; they are attached to GitHub Releases.

Fixed

• Jobs with independent support layer heights (Bambu counts extra layers in the markers' total, e.g. 358/360) were rejected by the output validation in both modes.

Layer Rescue 0.2.2

Fixed

• Restarted (manual) mode printed in the air after a power cycle. Z is not homed at that point, so absolute G1 Z moves did not match the aligned nozzle and the bed dropped (about 11 mm in the reported case). Every Z move is now written as a relative move from the aligned position, so the result no longer depends on G92 Z or on the Z the firmware believes it is at.

Changed

• Restarted mode turns off soft endstops (M221 X0 Y0 Z0), as the stock P1S start G-code does.
• Travel moves that also change Z are split: lift before travelling, lower after travelling.
• Restarted mode rejects sources it cannot convert safely: conditional firmware blocks that change Z, G92 Z, and extruding moves that change Z.
