Split bin with sliding lid

Closed this issue · 1 comments

I'm trying to split a bin with sliding lid, tried both in gridfinity_basic_cup.scad and gridfinity_lid.scad. The problem is that it will only keep the side without the part where you insert the lid, at least in my case.

x: 1
y: 5
height: 8

extension y enabled.

Or have I missed something?

You are right, the current version of the extendable feature essentially assumed that the bin was symmetrical. It relied on the user to then switch size of the bin to get what was needed.

This is no longer the case.

  • extension_x_enabled: options =disabled, front, back
  • extension_x_position: where the bin should be cut, positive values are in gf_units, negative values are a ratio as in length/abs(negative value)
  • extension_y_enabled: options =disabled, front, back
  • extension_y_position: where the bin should be cut, positive values are in gf_units, negative values are a ratio as in length/abs(negative value)

It was somewhat tricky to get the tabs correct. Let me know if you see any issues with their placement.
