upgrade it to a real "nesting" functionality would be great - similar to e.g. laser cut SW...

The adapted plugin is currently on the way to the gus at Ultimaker to check and distribute it. I assume, it will be in hte toolbox as soon as it is approved by them.

@thopiekar, a BIG thank you for your patience and time providing this plugin! It's a pleasure to assist...

@ahoeben, Cura devs, Seems that I experienced a (at least at my machines) reproducable crash when opening already slices/stored gcode files with 3.5 Already checked the log-file but there seems no anormalies/errors listed. Any hint?

@thopiekar is working on it, but it might take some time...

Is a huge rework or just a minor mod required to make them work again? Just as a hint how long it might take to have them available again... ?

Hi Thomas, never mind - hope it is a bit time for fun even at this long days. if it´s ok for you, I´m happy to act as a crash test bunny ? Just attach it to a PM, should work finde... b.r. chris

Hi! any news on the update? As I´m in a bigger design project right now, it gets a bit annoying to have the names not propperly managed... b.r. chris

Quite simple... download the ShowLayer.py file and safe it into ...\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\cura\3.4\scripts start cura, open an STL, go to "Extensions" => "Post Processing" => "Modify G-Code" and then use the "Add a script" button to select the "Show Layer" postprocessor When slicing something, it automatically adds M117 lines with the corresponding layer number into your script. but I guess there is a much better description/tutorial how to use postprocessors available in this forum ?

There is a postprocessor available which writes Layer Numbers into the G-Code file and displays them via M117. Maybe usefull for your application / UM3 too... https://github.com/AmedeeBulle/ShowLayer/blob/master/scripts/ShowLayer.py

? @Dim3nsioneer, kannst du da was dazu sagen?
