Are seriously suggesting that Lex Luthor <> Lexer Author?
Holy string comparison, Batman!
EDIT: Lex Luthor is Superman's nemesis

perhaps people are intimidated because you are writing "The Greatest Story Ever Told" ?

LOL I wouldn't call it that. It's just a tokenizer.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

...when your search from almighty Google returns a single hit - the Microsoft documentation page that names the enum entry you're looking for...

Sounds like a variation of The IT Crowd's "don't look up Google on Google".

I'm curious what it is, mostly because I have spelunked through an awful lot of arcane MS stuff. =)

Well, there's 2 results returned. The second one is for an older documentation page. For all intents and purposes, it's the same (and both useless).

That reminds me of VSIX and the visual studio extensibility stuff. I feel your pain.

In the early days of Google, a game was to find a search term that would return exactly one hit. Called "Googlewhack".

I remember that one. The problem was that if you posted an example that worked, then it no longer worked as it found the original one and your posting.

I'm printing a box to hold a temperature display on top of my 3D printer box, and for this - second - prototype I'm printing all three parts together: the face and sides, the base and back, and the display securing clip. This is just so I get a "matched set", and it'll all be ready to assemble together. It's three components in Fusion 360, so it's just a case of adding all three to a new design, spacing them out a little, and printing them.
Except ... I put the tiny mounting clip (8x13x3 mm) 2mm low in the design, and didn't notice - so Cura added a 2mm "foot" to the other components before it started printing ... and I didn't notice for a couple of hours.
In software terms, that's like a three hour processing run being thrown away because you didn't handle a null reference exception ... I'm an idiot.

Welcome to the wonderful world of 3D printing.
Wait until you get 2 days into a 3 day print and the power goes out. arrrrrrrg
They call me different but the truth is they're all the same!

Would not a little work with an Xacto knife, dremel or file resolve the problem?

For little components, yes. But we're talking about a plate 60x80mm and another 70x80mm ... there is no way I'd get a nice finish over that size. And one of 'em is the "front" plate which has to look right, and the other is the base which sits flush to the wooden box and has the securing lugs.

Measure twice, print once....

Whenever I think of experimenting with 3D printing I seem to get talked out of it.

It's actually quite fun in a "learning to think differently" kind of way - and surprisingly handy. It does take up quite a bit of space though - my box around it is basically a 0.5m cube, to keep the noise down, provide ABS fume extraction, and most importantly keep the cat away from it ...

Thinking differently - probably a parallel route of thinking came from the combination of machine shop and drafting courses required in my high school (even for college prep).
Drafting gave you the view of items and what's in front vs. what's behind. In layers.
Machine shop gave you the perspective that you don't request what were (then) impossible things, such as drilling a 1/2" hole and the requesting a 1" hole be drill internally with the hole that is 1" wide. Now, using a cutting laser, this is doable. Then, however, you could not put 1" drill down a 1/2" hole, nor even it were a partial wing-shaped cutter, swing it to that 1" dimension.
Oddly not wasted - even for chemistry grad school: When I needed a piece of equipment made, the machinist ("instrument maker" level) always appreciated my diagrams and design plans with the only complaint being that I was taught the European convention for the top view.
Most people, as you infer, never had to think in layers - and even with what I already have it's still going to be quite different. Also, we did our drafting with pencils and paper.

A nice bit of woodworking there, OG!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Thanks!
The front is held on by magnets, but the whole thing lifts off the base to change filament, etc.
