Toolpath view

Is it possible to see the toolpath; i.e. see where the print head is going with the ability to start and stop at any point in PrusaSlicer, and of course to speed up and slow down.  I had this capability with my CNC router design software and it was useful for understanding when and where tool changes were needed.  For the Prusa, it would be very helpful to know exactly where a filament change is needed, or is actually being made.

Sure. In Prusaslicer, load a model and slice it. Go to the Preview page, select Tool from the View dropdown menu in the lower left corner. Now you can use the horizontal and vertical sliders to see the tool path.

Thank you - just what I was after.   Add this (or many subtract it) from the many things in PrusaSlicer I don't understand fully.
