I'm sure that mosaic will get back to you with a solution.
Yes I hope they will, I have sendt them a message with the problem and the scripts used

I am having the same problem. It seems like the script in the "Side Transition" section no longer processes correctly. It generates code for the purge as if there is no script in the side transition section (purges the entire transition in one shot). I tried various small custom scripts, but Canvas simply doesn't process them. The "After Transition" section does seem to work, but it still purges the entire transition before processing the script in the "after" section, so pretty much useless for the purge mechanism. Have you guys tried using the purge mechanism in Canvas lately?
I'm inquiring with Mosaic to see what the problem is. Will post an update if they fix it.

It turns out this the problem was a bug in Canvas. Mosaic acknowledged the problem and just updated Canvas to fix it. Side transition for the purge mechanism seems to be working now.

Thanks for your info that sounds really great... But does it work without canvas hub/raspberry now ?

Do you mean post processing in Chroma and using Accessory Mode? I would assume so. The problem was the BB3D script for the blob purges was not being processed properly and that has been fixed. The gcode file now properly tells the printer to purge multiple 40mm blobs instead of one long blob.
Hope this helps.

You are welcome. I'm just competing a test print with a modified purge bucket mechanism in connected mode with Raspberry pi and Octoprint. Confirmed working.

@thomas-jensen It works great. I'm using this design https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4704964 with a modified purge bucket and custom script.

Hmm I think I will give that a try. The spring what does that do ?
Also in canvas what do you have in Before side transitioning and side transition ?

@thomas-jensen The spring returns the bucket and flips the coil off. I'm just getting ready to travel now, but I'll send you the script text when I get a chance.
