    • @Dadkitess, no, unfortunately we rarely print with PETG so far.
    • I have now downloaded and testet 5.7.0-beta.1 The objects list is there. But unfortunately I do not get these alternatives in the drop down menu inside the objects list.
    • Thanks a ton! I didn't know the startup Gcode field overrode the default commands. Seems to be working great now. 👍
    • Go to "Manage Printers" and "Machine Settings".  You want to edit the "StartUp G-Code". Cura will always put the heating commands in if there are no "replacement patterns" in the startup.   This is based on the Ender 3 Startup Gcode.  My changes are in bold.   ; Ender 3 Custom Start G-code G92 E0 ; Reset Extruder M220 S100 ; Reset the feed rate M221 S100 ; Reset the flow rate M140 S{material_bed_temperature_layer_0} ; Start heating the bed M104 S{material_print_temperature_layer_0} ; Start heating the nozzle G28 ; Home all axes G0 F600 Z5 ; Move up to ooze M190 S{material_bed_temperature_layer_0} ; Wait for the bed M109 S{material_print_temperature_layer_0} ; Wait for the nozzle G1 Z2.0 F3000 ; Move Z Axis up little to prevent scratching of Heat Bed G1 X0.1 Y20 Z0.3 F5000.0 ; Move to start position G1 X0.1 Y200.0 Z0.3 F1500.0 E15 ; Draw the first line G1 X0.4 Y200.0 Z0.3 F5000.0 ; Move to side a little G1 X0.4 Y20 Z0.3 F1500.0 E30 ; Draw the second line G92 E0 ; Reset Extruder G1 Z2.0 F3000 ; Move Z Axis up little to prevent scratching of Heat Bed G1 X5 Y20 Z0.3 F5000.0 ; Move over to prevent blob squish" ;End of StartUp   The "reset" lines are in case you happened to tune a previous print from the LCD.  They set the printer back to the default 100% feed and flow rates.     
    • Hi, still relatively new to using Cura for only about a year. I noticed that whenever I create a gcode file to print on my Ender 3, it is written so the bed heats up first, waits until it is up to temp, then starts heating the extruder. I believe I can make small savings in print time by modifying it to preheat both at the same time. I have written out the gcode that Cura spits out below. M140 S62 M105 M190 S62 M104 S210 M105 M109 S210   I rearranged this code to be:   M140 S62 M104 S210 M105 M104 S210 M109 S210   This seemed to work in preheating both at once. Is there a capability in Cura to change this on all gcode files that Cura generates? I looked in the printer settings and it seems the custom start gcode appears after this code snippet. I have attached an example gcode file to this post. My cura version is 5.2.1. I would greatly appreciate any help anyone can provide. Thanks!   CE3E3V2 Feeder Adapter v17 .gcode
