Re-add Copy/Paste of Instance Groups #6570
Comments
@vovodroid if you have any suggestions for where I should start poking on this, I'd be happy to take a crack at it. |
Hi, can you please upload screenshots with desired functionality in Prusa? As I see if copy-paste instance group you get new object. |
Yep, that's expected and useful -- I figured out what's going on that was
confusing me -- in Prusa, when you copy/paste an instance group, it gets
pasted with the relative positions maintained. In Orca, it gets pasted
with all instances in the same location, which makes it useless for
reproducing a given configuration of a large number of parts -- you still
have to drag them all into position
Is it possible to reproduce the "paste new instance group with original
positions" functionality?

But there are no instances in Bambu? Do you copy-paste group of objects? |
Yes. The use cases as follows:
I have 100 identical parts which I need to arrange in a tight grid.
I also have variants of these parts with the same general shape.
In prusa, I could create and arrange one instance group, copy/paste it onto
several different plates, and replace the part in each instant group to get
several different plates of several different parts, all in the same
physical configuration.

Orca bot: this issue is stale because it has been open for 90 days with no activity. |
Definitely not stale, still sorely missed by many 🙏

#6237 re-adds instancing support -- amazing!
But Copy/Paste of an Instance group today with 6237 only pastes the single master part, not the instance group
Prusaslicer's underlying behavior allows copy/pasting of instance groups to create a new instance group with a new master -- for people who print large numbers of parts with small variations, this is extremely useful to quickly reproduce identical arrays with different parts.
Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?
All
Describe the solution you'd like
When copy/pasting instances of an object, all instances should be pasted.
A new master should be created for the pasted instances, as in Prusaslicer.
Describe alternatives you've considered
An option to paste instances linked to the ORIGINAL master would also be very useful for making complicated plates, but probably requires more work.
