No, CANVAS is browser-based and requires an internet connection. We do recommend giving it a try because of how much it simplifies the multi-material slicing process.
I don't want to slice in the cloud. What are my options?
Use Chroma: By slicing in another slicer (it works with the most popular slicers like Cura, Simplify3D, Slic3r) and then running the GCode file through Mosaic Chroma software. It accepts a multi-tool GCode file and produces a file that Palette can understand (e.g. Drive 1, 200mm; Drive 2, 100mm). Chroma can be used offline if you prefer to keep things that way. Chroma will work on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Chroma is not available for palette 3, which is a shame given that mosaic's servers had an outage today that made it impossible to use my Palette 3...
This type of bullshit is why we're demanding offline capabilities.
I did not pay $800 for a device that becomes a paperweight whenever your server has issues.
Please release Chroma or some similar tool to allow all slicers (not just Prusa) to be able to utilize Palette 3 devices without reliance on your servers.
