Algorithm (Workflow)

This algorithm is a MATLAB function named SGprint designed to handle file operations related to 3D printing. It is part of the SolidGeometry library and is used to write STL files and open a slicer application afterwards.

Input Parameters

Function Workflow

  1. The function begins by opening the BambuStudio application using the openbydoubleclick function. This is specified with the path '/Applications/BambuStudio.app'.
  2. The input parameter SG is converted into a cell array using the elem2cell function. This allows for flexible handling of the input, whether it is a single file or a list of files.
  3. The function SGwriteMultipleSTL is called with the cell array SG as its argument. This function is responsible for writing the STL files for each element in the cell array.
  4. Finally, the function cura is called. This likely refers to a function that interacts with the Cura slicer software, although the specific actions are not detailed in the provided code.

Additional Information

The function is part of a developer procedure and is not intended for release. It was introduced in version 5.4 of the SolidGeometry library. The function is associated with other functions like SGprintAPredator and SGprintPreForm, which may offer similar or complementary functionality.
