Way to Enable PrusaSlicer Thumbnails for MK3S?
Is there a way to have PrusaSlicer generate thumbnails like the mini does?
RE: Way to Enable PrusaSlicer Thumbnails for MK3S?
This may not get you quite what you are looking for but it is kinda great.
Bring your stl(s) into PrusaSlicer and get it all set up the way you like.
Then go to File / Save Project and save it as a .3mf
Then you will have some pretty decent thumbnails for reference and it'll have all your slicer settings dialed it next time you open it in PrusaSlicer
Hope that helps!

If you mean include thumbnails in the generated gCode, yes you can edit the printer profile to include thumbnails.
Make a copy of the the printer profile, and go to menu>help>Show configuration folder.
Locate the printers subfolder and edit the .ini file of your printer.
Around the bottom (line 69), there is a line that says "thumbnails =" change it to "thumbnails = 16x16,220x124"
works great in octoprint with the OctoPrint-PrusaSlicerThumbnails plugin

Awesome! Thank you!

Unfortunately, when I create a copy of the profile and add the thumbnail line to it, Prusaslicer crashes when I try to load the new printer profile. I'm using PS 2.1.1 64bit and edited the ini file with notepad++. I've uploaded the resulting ini file in case anyone wants to take a look and provide any suggestions.

Hi Steven.
I just loaded your .ini in my WIN10 PS 2.2 and it works perfectly fine for me, you might have to update to PS 2.2...
I sliced a test and the thumbnail is indeed included in the exported gcode when using your printer profile:

Thanks. Updating to the latest PrusaSlicer fixed the crashing.

Be aware of this issue if you sometimes print your gcode from SD card.

Got it. Thanks again!

If you mean include thumbnails in the generated gCode, yes you can edit the printer profile to include thumbnails.
Make a copy of the the printer profile, and go to menu>help>Show configuration folder.
Locate the printers subfolder and edit the .ini file of your printer.
Around the bottom (line 69), there is a line that says "thumbnails =" change it to "thumbnails = 16x16,220x124"works great in octoprint with the OctoPrint-PrusaSlicerThumbnails plugin
When the printer's subfolder is empty, you can change a printer's setting and save it this initialize the file.

@djk
This worked for me, thanks! I've loved this plugin on my Mini. I just got the MK3S and had to search for why it didn't work on it. Now it does 😊
