it should be installed automatically as it is so wonderful. -
both optimisations activated.
start now in 17sec instead of 25sec.
Super many tks
Philippe

so fast ! tks.
not really :
here below : PLA - EVO or PLA - HR870 instead of PLA or PLA
n.b. the temperature of the first is 206°c while the second is 215°c

To gain visibility by displaying only the full name of the profile used, be able to choose not to display in the small window concerned irrelevant details such as %infill, layer height, etc..
The choice could be made simply via a check box in «preference-> configure Cura»
May be could it be a plugin ?
Tks

As usual, super @ahoeben. I whish you an happy new year with all my thanks for your wonderful Cura input.
May be also the material_display_name because some parameters inside the profil are specific to each filament even if they are all PLA ( ie T°, speed, ... ) .

TKS for this clarification

He,
in case of raft, the "initial layer height" applied to the raft first layer or to the model first layer ?
Thanks
Philippe

strange because the new visual extra fine intent profile for S3 is set with 0.06 LH and not 0.08 ?
by the way, I get far better result with a 0.08 LH with my 0.20 nozzel on my MK3s

He,
I did not dare try the solution of GH which seems too complex for me.
By the way, what do you means by 'logs" ? ( I enclosed 3mf and profiles Cura 4.40 and Cura 4.3.0)
I found a solution in the forum :
well, my problem was not at start, but I made the following, based on his suggestion :
norton -> pare feu -> controle programme -> ajouter ( add a new program autorisation) -> selected CURA 4.4.0 and gave full autorisation.
the reaction speed of this beautifull program has greatly improved, even if it is not a "speedy gonzales". -
Tks, @RoboDLC

Now, the problem is solved.

He,
I just installed the new release.
Not any crash at opening but program freezes (« not responding ») during 10 à to 20 seconds at each action / profile param value update, insert or delete or move any item on the build plate, record profile, etc. Loading a project is so so slow.
I do not have any of these problems with my current 4.3.0 version fortunately still active.

Active printer : MK2
sorry

SUPER. tks for clarification
-
He,
which formulas are to be used into the start code to be able to use each all new linear advance factors ( infill, wall, ...) set inside the profil ?
why so many possibilities ?
Many tks.
Philippe

Tks for your answer.
kind regards

He,
I print with 0.2 and 0.15 nozzles with CURA 4.0.0. The few cool filament remaining in the nozzle at start tends to generate on the next print an under-extrusion or worse a clogging. I eliminate this problem by extruding -before each new print- 5cms at the first layer temperature + 15 °c.
In the same spirit, I fully retract the filament at the end of each print : G1 E-160 F600 … again with an extrudeur T° set at first layer temperature +15°.
It works perfectly and I have no more worries.
I set both higher T° manually in my start/end g_codes but have to update them at each first layer T° change (filament change).
In the start/end g_code, the formula M104 S {material_print_temperature_layer_0} to obtain a T ° equal to the first layer T° defined in CURA 4.0.0 profile works fine.
But how to increase it by + 15 ° ?
I tried unsuccessfully various formulas: M104 S{material_print_temperature_layer_0 + 15} or M104 S {material_print_temperature_layer_0 +15}, or M104 S{(material_print_temperature_layer_0) +15} or M104 S {material_print_temperature_layer_0 * 1.1}
None works.
Any suggestion ?
Many tks

Tests with different values for the adaptive layers threshold parameter.
We print our locomotive with 0.081 layers. it's good, although some too small details are not printed optimally. With layers of 0.05, the details are improved, but the overall quality seems less good. The use of adaptive layers is therefore an excellent solution. Congratulations to ctbeke.
I found this post and this other post
Well, I did not found a mathematically understandable answer to my above question, but I understood how to set up this superb function.
In my case :
Layer height : 0.081
initial layer height : 0.16
Adaptative layer maximum variation : 0.03 which allow layers from 0.051 till 0.111
Adaptative layers variation step size : 0.012 ( = 0.051, 0.063, 0.075, 0.087, ……….. 0.087 , 0.099 , 0.111)
I then performed tests with different values of the "adaptive layers threshold" to compare the results with a print made either only with 0.081 layers (20H46) or with 0.05 (33H03).
The result shows a variation of the layers height (and therefore the duration) not constant. I have summarized it in the table below.
After a visual study, we decided to use for this model a value of 500, which generate this slicing :

He,
into this beautiful slicer, there is a parameter "adaptive layers treshold" with a default value set at 200.0 .
At which angle corresponds this value ?
is it tan(angle) = 0.2 which means an angle of +- 11.5° ? Just to clarify, in such a case, a switch angle of 45° should be set at 1000.0 because tan(45°) = 1.0. Correct ?
many tks.

I feel this display so clear.

I think this plugin is no longer necessary with the new version as you may position the panel anywhere in the 3D viewer.
Look at the explanations on https://ultimaker.com/en/blog/52886-innovate-with-ultimaker-cura-41

Many tks for your answser with your helpfull feedback. Congratulations for yours prints..... We also have to face with the macro pictures distorsions.
We are printing with an 0.15mm nozzel with a layer heigth of 0.08mm. This work well too :
To fix the ideas for the duckboard : the rectangular holes are 0.36mm x 0.36mm and the solid part between two holes to a width of 0.274mm. His thickness is 0.374mm. The filament used is a PLA PREMIUM from 3DONLINE.

our discussion between us was about the CURA process :
Any idea how does CURA react on the flow if we reduce the line width by 10% as per their recommandations ?
some said that the flow is automatically reduced by 10%, others said that Cura do not impact on the flow when changing this line width setting ?
Many tks

He,
I am printing with a 0.15mm nozzel and I am a little be lost to improve the print quality.
CURA 4.0.0 recommend to "slightly reducing the line width value could produce a better print".
a/ How does CURA react on the flow if I reduce the line width by 10% ? by reducing the flow by 10% , with no change on the flow ? with ????
b/ why could I expect a quality improvement ?
many thanks for your input.

I have an Anycubic I3 mega and a MK3S. I connect both without any problem via USB ( Windows 10 family version 1809) under Pronterface.
I am out till end of the week. when back, I will check under CURA with your wonderfull Sidebar GUI. ( Did I say tks for it ?)

Correct, the Sidebar GUI is working quite well and is very powerfull.

Cura Startup Optimiser plugin needs testers
in UltiMaker Cura
Posted · Edited by OUPS65
The idea of many materials may be interesting but CURA appeared to have been suffocated. In my case (am I the only one?), the full set is too heavy, too bulky and totally unnecessary.
Now, in addition to the 30% gain at startup, it's such a pleasure to rediscover a flexible and efficient CURA 4.5.
Ouf ( in french in the text 🙂 ), I would be so sorry to discover CURA going down.
