    Micro Layer Shifts

    in Improve your 3D prints

    Posted

    It's irregular horizontal banding. It might have these origins:

    - model (check Cura's layer view)

    - temperature variation at the hotend (some people got it more steady by applying copper to improve thermal contact between heater block, temp sensor and heater cartridge, others succeeded by running the autopid feature)

    - bang-bang mode of the heated bed (UM2); recompile the firmware with activated pid mode for the heated bed

    This list might be imcomplete.

    That is noted, thank you for sharing.

    I don't know if you have read the full thread (if not, brace yourself!)

    but that particular fix doesn't have our highest priority at the moment.

    Now that everyone can log in again hopefully we can go without '-TheGuyKnownAs..- ;)

    Nonetheless, it will be addressed! :)

    Thanks!

    Not everybody can login... as I just wrote you, I still do not get reset emails... :(

    It's a pity I can't change my profile's name anymore. I would really be in a mood to change it to 'TheAnnoyedGuyKnownAsDim3nsioneer'.

    Hi UM-Family:), some good news, I was able to finaly reset my password yesterday night so I can login again with my "old" account. I hope this is true for others also? @dim3nsioneer, @theguyknownasandersolsson?

    @Daid, brave move. I seriously hope that initiates changes (top down) as forseen.

    Nope. I still cannot login. As I said, it will at least take another week for UM to fix it. Time is running...

    I'm actually a bit pissed off as I have to write this post a second time after I was hit by a timeout of the forum when finishing it the first time... :(

    @TheGuyKnownAsAndersOlsson: Welcome back among the living, or are we rather the walking dead? I wonder how many TheGuyKnownAs-Logins we might get... ;)

    @Daid: Although I'm seriously concerned about the consequences your posts may have for you, Ultimaker and this community, you have my full respect. Let's hope it helps to push things into the right direction.

    I'm actually worried about the fact that R&D people were apperently ignored when this forum was set up. This is very different to the spirit we used to know about within Ultimaker, where everything was feeling like in a big family.

    However, R&D people were not the only ones to be ignored. I remember having expressed my serious concerns about gamification of the forum. Others were with me. Well, I cannot feel other than having been ignored.

    I'm not a software engineer. This helps me to watch all this from a certain distance without having the feeling to know better. Maybe it also helps to be Swiss and therefore neutral... ;)I think we are at the point where we all will have to give UM a serious and realistic chance to improve the situation. On the other hand I expect UM to loose not one hour for chasing the solutions. If they fail within reasonable time - others might be more competent to define such a time than me - I would support an inofficial Ultimaker forum. I hope this is a fair deal.

    Well, it would be tempting to say if many people are on holiday then it's the wrong time to switch systems when the old one still works fine. But it happened to me in the past that IT people just told me what I wanted to hear when I asked them about possible problems of e.g. a release change.

    I receive notifications at the top bar - next to the bell - there's a red circle with a number.  But I don't get any emails.  I thought it would be nice to be able to have some setting where I can get an email on every notification.  Of course some people won't like that so it should be an option.

    It might be breathtaking if there are even three options: notify instantaneously, once per day and once per week... :O

    The developers which should be working on enabling you to log in are also responsible for other tasks, but currently mainly focussed on the forum.

    (but truth be told, in that area there is also plenty to be done)

    I said we (I) work 7 days a week, but we can't demand it from everyone (i.e. the developers) . So they are, with some flexibility, limited to office hours.

    Nonetheless, he should be on this issue today.

    Stefan, have you received an email already?

    Just from another UM forum user telling me he cannot login but not something like a solution from the developer...

    Well, if the developer would have a similar attitude as you, he would also work 7 days a week to solve the problems, wouldn't he? ;)

    Sander, I'm still waiting for paasword reset fix as regards AOL.  I have communicated with your privately about it using my AOL address which I much prefer.  You privately replied and asked for several days to look into the matter.  NOTHING has been resolved.

    Please attend to this matter.  Your new, 3rd party website hosting webmaster does not apparently have the skills you were promised when you made this unwise change-over.  How tough can it be?

    I also cannot receive aol NEW REGISTRATION confirm email.  And it's been over a week now.  I can't even find the "resend email confirmation" button anymore.  UM has now tied up 3 of my email addresses.  That is simply not acceptable.

    And I thought I'm the only impatient guy... ;)

    Let's face the truth: It will take at least another week until everybody can login properly again. Mainly because the login issue is not top priority (I guess the spam problem is, which is not completely wrong...). In addition the people responsible for fixing issues of the new forum might also be responsible for other parts of the Ultimaker web presence. I was told they are currently working 7 days per week. Actually, I prefer having the issue really fixed and not having everything else screwed up by a fast bugfix. But it should not take forever... :(

    And now, I hope Ultimaker will prove me wrong... :D

    I MISS YOU!!!

    Hey swordriff, don't panic! I'm here... ;)

    It's true some of the users, including me, still cannot login due to whatever software problem. I have been in close contact with Sander for the last few days and he has been - as usual - very helpful (although I was nailing him every day about the issue... :D ).

    I was also told that the login problem is not top priority but is worked on. I guess top priority atm really has the spamming issue. They are working on it and should come with a solution soon. But it wont be a charge, I suppose, as this forum should be kept free. Rather it's going to be the old mechanism that the mods have to verify the first posts of a new member.

    But I know what you mean with a bit lost spirit in the new forum. For me it's a matter of time we are back on the old level of helping each other. As soon as everybody is on board again - don't forget that some of the old forum's users might not yet have logged in yet.

    The missing spirit is also partially a bit due to fact people try to make this forum as good as the old one and are not posting a lot about tech issues. But if you have a close look in some of the subforums you will see some of the major topics going on.

    cheers,

    Dim3nsioneer

    As someone just liked my previous post: Is it correct that the likes are now anonymous?

    At least you cannot like your own posts anymore... (well I could like the posts of my normal login and fake a few points... hehehe... :D )

    Another two things I'm missing and might be added for completion of the new forum:

    - A button for jumping to the forum top when you are somewhere in your profile.

    - Location and printer text within the short profile text in each post (I wonder that gr5 didn't mention it so far, or did he? ;) ). This really helps finding solutions to problems posted on the forum!

    It worked. Thanks. Quite well hidden.

    you have quite the long name that breaks the website. O_O

    Well, should be only temporarily. I hope I can write again as 'Dim3nsioneer' next week ;) But it shows some other issue to fix on this forum.
