  1. This seems to have been a deliberate choice as part of the redesign.
  2. Note that Cura has a “flow” setting (in the Material category of the sidebar) which will let you affect the amount of material extruded
  3. The density is only used to show the weight of the extruded material. It does not affect slicing.
  4. On the "General" pane of the preferences, uncheck the "Send (anonymous) print information" option.
  5. There is no Cura 6.0. I think you are talking about Cura 3.6.0. The density is used to calculate the weight of the material that is used for a print. The slicers knows the lenght of the material that is extruded. To know the weight, you also need the diameter of the material, and the density.
  6. You can look at the situation like it is “sad” that you need a plugin to restore the GUI to what you are used to, or you can look at it as “great” that it is now possible to even make such a plugin. It was not possible to charge the GUI to this extent in 3.6 in a plugin, but it is in 4.0. Now you have a choice, which you did not have before.
  7. This needs to be solved in Cura. AFAIK, there is no workaround at the moment.
  8. In de “Machine Settings” moet je de “Gcode flavor” op “Marlin” zetten. Die setting staat nu op “Ultimaker 2”, en die gcode “smaak” is niet compatible met usb printen.
  9. The problem lies with an updated Qt framework and how that handles creating OpenGL contexts (compared to older versions of Qt)
  10. I think the Mac version is using software rendering on your machine. If you share your logs we can be sure.
  11. Yes, this is a known problem. The "beta" version linked in this thread is ONLY compatible with beta 1. The version in the Marketplace is ONLY compatible with beta 2. I hope the version in the Marketplace will be compatible with the final release of Cura 4, but I can not guarantee.
  12. Casting with molten materials is quite different from casting with materials that cure chemically such as epoxy or urethane. The molten material will tend to solidify quite quickly when touching a cold mold, thus blocking any further molten material from flowing into the molded cavity. I don't think this will work very well.
  13. Your advice might very well work. We just don’t know, because of the changes in the LE versions.
  14. You may get more response in the Lulzbot forums then here, because the LE versions are significantly different, and I think hardly anyone on this forum uses these versions.
  15. And for those people who generally like autoslicing, but may want to turn it off every now and then for a particularly heavy model - without going into the preferences to switch the option every time - there is a neat plugin in the Marketplace that will add a pause/play button next to the slice/save/print buttons: "Automatic Slicing Toggle Switch"
  16. The bottom face of your model is missing a trtiangle. In other words, there's an unintended hole in the model which throws off Cura; the model is not "watertight".
  17. More importantly, quoting from the blog post: "The internal lights of the Ultimaker S5 can now be completely turned off." Hurray!
  18. The SidebarGui plugin is now available from the Marketplace. Note that the version from the Marketplace is only compatible with Cura 4 beta 2. If you are still using Cura 4 beta 1, please upgrade to beta 2.
  19. It is called a Prime Tower. You can turn it off in the custom settings if you want. Use the search box and type “prime”. Note that it is there to improve the switching between extruders though.
  20. What version of Cura do you use? There's a bug in 3.6 that could partly explains what you are seeing, but it is hard to tell without a screenshot or two.
  21. Most of my plugins are now available in the Marketplace. Note that they are not compatible with Cura 4 beta 1, only with Cura 4 beta 2 (and Cura 3.5 - 3.6). The versions linked above may or may not work in beta 2, depending on the plugin. If they stopped working after updating to Cura 4 beta 2, please check the Marketplace. Note that the pre-release plugins may have higher versions than the plugins now available in the Marketplace. Please ignore that. The ones in the Marketplace are newer versions.
  22. Most of my plugins are now available for this beta in the Marketplace. Two are One is still awaiting approval from Ultimaker. Note that plugins that are now becoming available in the Marketplace probably will not work with beta 1; they need beta 2.
  23. To uninstall the plugin, go to Marketplace, then to the "installed" tab on the right. The Sidebar GUI plugin should be listed there, along with a way to uninstall it.
  24. @joestefano, are you by chance using my SidebarGui plugin? That is not recommended with master (or when running from source, really). If you do, you will have to keep the SidebarGui plugin updated with the plugin repository yourself: https://github.com/fieldofview/cura-sidebarguiplugin The sidebarguiplugin "patches" certain areas of the cura gui. When there are structural changes to the gui, the plugin must be amended to patch the right parts. The currently "released" version (from the forum topic about the plugin) is compatible with Cura 4 beta 1 only. Once Cura 4 beta 2 is released, there will be an initial release of the plugin to the Marketplace (but this version will not work properly in beta 1). There may be another release when the final version of Cura 4 is launched.
