Scoops not rendering

hogcycle opened this issue · comments

Hi, quick question. New to openscad, I'm trying to make some simple 1x1 boxes with a custom height and a scoop, but I can't get the scoop to appear. Is there some prerequisite that needs to be met to generate a scoop? Coming from a fresh file, this is all I've changed.
gridx and gridy set to z, gridz define set to "overall external height of the bin in mm", gridz to 30, internal height to 1, style lip to "remove lip and retain height", and scoop weight to 1. That configuration nets me this, which is great as a bin, but I'd really like a scoop for smaller parts.

Is this something too complex for the customizer? Will I have to edit the file manually?

@hogcycle try making your box really tall by adjusting the height_internal value to something above 50 and see if the scoop shows up. I stumbled on this thread hoping to find an answer and I've been fiddling with it for a bit and finally realized that my internal height setting was what affected the tab and scoop generation.

@hogcycle I just ran into this. I was doing the same thing. I got it working by setting the internal height to 0, but making sure divx and divy were not 0.
