    It appears this has been fixed.   Here are the code changes made to the PauseAtHeight.py script.  

     

     

    Thank you robkleinpeter, unfortunatly this is out of my knowledge and i don't know what to do with that file.

    Does that mean that i need to replace "PauseAtHeight.py" in "C:\Program Files\Ultimaker Cura 4.2\plugins\PostProcessingPlugin\scripts" with the file you provided ?

     

    in doubt, i edited the gcode with notepad++ and  added "G1 F300 Z4.3" and it worked perfectly. as long as i don't know what to do with the help you provided, i'll modify the gcodes to restore the right hight.

     

    thank you again, have a nice day.

  2. Hello,

    inserted a "pause at layer" in Cura 4.2.1. nozzle goes 1mm higher before going to parking zone. after resume, it remains 1mm too high and prints in the air for the next layer. here is an example gcode

    height for layer 20 should be 4.3, but the last height is still 5.3.

    i am not sure, but  should i add something like : G1 F300 Z4.3 ?

    like this  ?

    How to change the prefix in saved Cura files.

    In this example I use a Wanhao i3 plus (for other printers copy the relevant printer file)

    Copy the following file to your desktop and rename the copy to your preference:

    C:\Program Files\Ultimaker Cura 4.2\resources\definitions\wanhao_i3plus.def.json

    I renamed it “wanhao_i3plus_PETG.def.json” in my example

    Open the file to alter it, I use a program called “Code Writer”

    Within that file, edit the name (line 3) to your preference. Remember the first character of each word in the name will become the prefix of files created, so don’t use spaces between words if needed.

     

    Hello, it worked for me !

    got a Geeetech A10. Geeetech A10 json file is in place but Cura does not see it. instead it sees the Geeetech A10M json file and the prefix is only "G_".so i changed line 3 from "Geeetech A10M"to "Geeetech A10" and save the file : the new prefix is now "GA10_"

     

    thank you brenyw and all contributors. have a nice day.

     

  4. Hello,

    in this order :

    - short dark screen (video driver update ?)

    - Cura no more working

    - reset + restart

    - windows update

    - still no Cura working

    - found the windows 8 compatibility solution in this forum (thank you forum !)

    - after applying windows 8 compatibility, Cura Working again

     

    the video (issue-driver) seems to be the real origine of the Cura gui problem :  a guess too !

     

    have a nice day

  5. Hello,

    yes, i restarted windows, reset and even shut down and restarted the computer.

    some informations ;

    - Cura was opended, but i was working on LibreOffice.

    - there was a short black screen and a jingle indicating an usb connexion was closed.

    - but no usb connexion was closed

    - everything ok, but when returning to Cura, there was no more gui displayed, Cura on task manager only.

    - graphic card (integrated to Intel Core I7 6700) driver is dated 18-11-2018.

    did windows update this driver only yesterday, without saying anything, or did i missed that information while i was working ?

    windows update history says there was an update yesterday, but this update begun after powering again my computer when trying to solve the Cura problem...

    have a nice day.

  6. Hello,

    found a similar post in this forum.

    the solution that worked for me : windows 8 compatibility

    they say the graphic card may be the problem.

    my win10 pro version 1803 says my intel HD graphics 530 driver is up to date.

    why did Cura suddenly stopped working ? 

    don't know, but it works now with windows 8 compatibility.

    have a nice day.

     

  7. Hello,

    Cura 3.6.0 suddenly crashed yesterday. when i tried to rerun, nothing happened.

    Cura.exe appears in the task bar : first 52.0 Mo and then 48.9 Mo, but there is no display of the interface.

    uninstall + install again : only in task bar.

    uninstall + install Cura 3.5.1 : only in task bar.

    any idea how to fix this problem ?

    thank you.

    have a nice day.
