Thank you! I will look at those. When I design my own models I don't have the problem, it is mainly to be able to print scanned objects with some overhang here and there that can be "filled" without optically doing damage.

Thanks very much for your answer! It is in the section "experimental" so I understand that it is what it is. So no "bug". Do you by any chance know of a program that could have the same effect of "make printable" on an stl-file? (not this one) I work with a lot of scanned models that could be printed much easier that way. And then also usable with SLA/DLP type printers.

I now tested it in version 5.1 but the result is the same! Does anyone know if this is looked at by Ultimaker?

This is the smaller version ;-). Test_Overhang_small.stl

This is the STL-file. Test_Overhang.stl

This is the model: This is the sliced model. There are some layers added underneath the overhang but not extending back to the model so it is now printing in mid air.

In Cura 5.0 "Make Overhang Printable" does add some structure underneath the overhang but not so that it is printable. I use this feature a lot so please fix this. Thank you!

Thank you for your time and effort! Cheers, Roman van der Rijt Key23D

I saw this post yesterday already https://ultimaker.com/en/community/7493-5-extruders. It's from july 2014 where Daid said he was working on rewriting the GUI code. Do you happen to know anything about this? Cheers, Roman van der Rijt Key23D

Hello, I have a 5 nozzel printer here, RoVa3D from ORD Solutions to be exact, and I have some problems getting all of the nozzels to work in one print. Before I started using Cura I used Slic3r + Pronterface, in Slic3r I was able to make 5 colour prints but in Cura it seems to crash right as I load in the fifth part of the print. The maximum amount of nozzels I got to work and print perfectly are 4. The reason I started to use Cura is because of it's quality, I never got a nice looking print from Slic3r. I was wondering if anyone knows a way to work around this issue, I am probably not going to use the fifth nozzel too much but it would be great if I got it to work. Kind regards, Roman van der Rijt Key23D

Hello Daid and CreativeWolf, I also have the same printer as CreativeWolf, the RoVa3D with 5 nozzels. I have been trying to optimize the printer and a couple days ago I resigned to Cura instead of Slic3r + pronterface. In the newest version of Cura, 15.04.4, I can select that my printer has 5 nozzels, but as soon as I try to do that Cura feezes. The max amount of nozzels I can get to work are 4 and that works without a problem. Do you know if there is a way to get all the 5 nozzels to work? Kind regards, Roman van der Rijt Key23D
