Brent Perteet 859ce050a3 Add SVG combination tool and plate dimension options
Created combine_svg_vertical.py to vertically stack SVG files with centering
and configurable spacing. Enhanced svg_logo_to_stl.py with plate dimensions
and margin options for better nameplate creation.

combine_svg_vertical.py features:
- Vertically combines two SVG files (icon above text)
- Automatically centers smaller element
- Configurable spacing between elements (default: 20px)
- Configurable margin around composition (default: 10px)
- Preserves individual SVG structure in groups

svg_logo_to_stl.py enhancements:
- Added --plate-width and --plate-height options
- Logo scales to fit within plate dimensions (maintaining aspect ratio)
- Added --margin option for spacing around logo on plate
- Automatic centering of logo on plate
- Reports actual dimensions: plate, logo, margin, and offset

Example usage:
  # Combine icon and text
  python combine_svg_vertical.py um_grey.svg um_black.svg combined.svg --spacing 114

  # Center on 256x256mm plate with 10mm margin
  python svg_logo_to_stl.py combined.svg output \
    --plate-width 256 --plate-height 256 --margin 10 \
    --base-thickness 1.5 --feature-height 2.5

- underground-magnetics-combined.svg: Example combined logo
- svg_logo_to_stl.py: Enhanced with plate dimensions
- command.txt: Updated with new parameters

# SVG to Multi-Color 3D Model Converter
# Automatically detects all colors in SVG and creates one part per color
# Note: The DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is needed for Cairo to work on macOS
# Basic usage - specify width, logo scales proportionally
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/homebrew/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" && source .venv/bin/activate && python svg_logo_to_stl.py "Color logo - no background.svg" logo_output --width-mm 254 --base-thickness 1.5 --feature-height 2.5
# Plate dimensions - logo scales and centers on specified plate size with margin
python svg_logo_to_stl.py underground-magnetics-combined.svg um_logo --plate-width 256 --plate-height 256 --margin 10 --base-thickness 1.5 --feature-height 2.5
# Or if you've already activated the venv and set the library path:
python svg_logo_to_stl.py "Color logo - no background.svg" logo_output --width-mm 254 --base-thickness 1.5 --feature-height 2.5
# Works with ANY SVG file! The script will:
# 1. Automatically detect all unique colors
# 2. Create one part per color
# 3. Generate assembly with separate selectable parts
# Output files:
# - logo_output_base.stl - Black base plate
# - logo_output_{color}.stl - One STL per detected color
# - logo_output_assembled.stl - All parts combined (single mesh)
# - logo_output_assembled.3mf - All parts as single mesh (for paint tool)
# - logo_output_parts.3mf - Separate selectable parts (BEST for multi-color!)
# Import logo_output_parts.3mf into BambuStudio
# Each detected color becomes a separate selectable part
# Assign different filaments to each part for multi-color printing
# Example for this logo:
# 1. base - black base plate
# 2. white - "SPARKSOFT DESIGN" text
# 3. green - microchip icon + "EMBEDDED SOLUTIONS" text
# Total model height: base_thickness + feature_height (default: 0.8mm + 1.8mm = 2.6mm)
# IMPORTANT: Scale must be 254mm or larger for 0.4mm nozzle
# Smaller sizes cause features to be too small for proper toolpath generation
# Parameters:
# --width-mm: Logo width in mm (if plate dimensions not specified)
# --plate-width: Plate width in mm (logo will be scaled and centered)
# --plate-height: Plate height in mm (logo will be scaled and centered)
# --margin: Margin around logo when using plate dimensions (default: 0)
# --base-thickness: Base plate thickness in mm (default: 0.8)
# --feature-height: Raised feature height in mm (default: 1.8)
