[New Printer Def: Ender 3 - wrong diameter filament default]

while we are talking about the Ender 3 Profile: I can't pick the custom materials i created for my other printers for this profile. Perhaps it is because of the wrong diamater. It looks like the Ender is treated as an Ultimaker machine.

Selecting the new "Creality Ender 3" as printer from the list results in underextrusion. For reference I used exactly the same profile but this time I selected "Creality CR-10" and changed the settings to match the Ender 3 and it worked perfectly.

 

Is this a bug or did I just miss some settings?

The filament diameter for the Ender 3 is wrong by default in the Cura profile. Go to the machine settings for the Ender, choose the tab "Extruder 1" and change the setting for "Compatible filament diameter" from 2.85mm to 1.75mm.

Hey there, first of all: thanks for the great work!

 

BUT:

 

You disabled the ability to set the diameter in the sidebar. I now have to create a profile (wich is fine for me) but the profile doesn't seem to have any effect on the print settings at all. I tried to use the little "Fx" button to let Cura calculate the value but that doesn't do the job for temperatures or anything else i set in the material profile. As long as it doesn't use the diameter i set it into, this version is unusable for me (and for many many others cause it is a BIG difference to use the actual diameter wich is not always close to 1.75!...Yes...i don't have an Ultimaker like many many other users. I use the TronXY X5S and the Creality Ender 3 and nearly all the people in the FB groups use Cura too). Oh and by the way...It would be nice to actually show the color i set for the material in the drop down menu. Makes it easier to choose the right color when you have lots of profiles. ...keep up the good work and thanks for the Ender 3 profile in this new version (the filament diameter for the Ender 3 is not 2,85mm btw...not problem for me but people like Cashy in one of the previous posts will have a hard time finding the issue ;) it needs to be 1.75mm) .......................keep up the good work!
