same issue... i think this is a very stupid thing.... i do not understand how anyone can cosiderer this a good way to create a prime tower.... this is the cura stupid prime tower (the obj is only orange in this layer but cura use also lot of orange material) this is a normal prime tower from a less stupid application...: (this layer is only red... in prime tower a bit of red material only need to continue vertical path of prime tower). sorry, very difficult to undestand this... developer say in this https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/5282#issuecomment-594646291 "this is to have a strong prime tower with different material" ... if the tower is weak also my obj is weak and is this is a problem... not the prime tower...

No still bugged

HI all, anyone find some problem with conical support in 4.3 ? i tried to generate support for a simple model but i'm unable to create a conical support. Same part, cura 4.3 , standard support (no conical) ok same part, cura 4.3, tree support ok same part, cura 4.0, conical, standard and tree support always ok someone tried ?

very helpful, last print was predicted 4h33m and real 4h30m !!!

just made a print, after putting in the "printer settings" plugin same value for speed, acceleration and jerk from configuration.h and a 70 min print was 71 min... so this is another way to solve i think

uhmmm... i preferer to stay with actual settings becasue with others software i have not this issue. I think to use siggestion from @DivingDuck and try to put in "printer settings" addon same value of speed and jerk from my firmware... si if cura have same value i hope will calculate same time...

hi, i have same printer and same issue.... time is totally wrong. last was 85 min predicted and more than 140 min real.... also there is not a profile and every time i need to rebuild because EVERY upgrade cura tell there is something wrong with profile...

Tried to make conical support with no success with 2 different (and pretty simple) part, when i enable conical support, all support disappear completly, without conical support are ok (but a lot...) Standard value 30° and 5 mm, 50° ovehang With the 2 same parts, same values and same custom printer no problem with cura 4.0.0

yes is a stupid thing... use a mash for printer is useful to see front and rear printer so i can rotate and see when it print particolar critics zone...

i found more bug with 2 material and cura, i found (ONLY ON 1st layer) after print with material #1 start with material #2 without prime it on tower (i have an y bowden with 2 motors and 1 nozzle) so i have a lot of dirty material. Cura dev say is a feature........

thanks

Hi all, i have an installation of cura 4.0.0 fully working, no issue. I wanna check cura 4.2.1 .... can i install side to side on same pc the 2 versions ? i must be careful with some step ?

sorry i did not understand. Yes, i have an anycubic kossle plus, the cura application is from official site. The profile i do not remember where are from (but i think to have make it manually). When i try to upgrade i loose configuration, and i cannot restore from backup because application tell me is a wrong release. I wrong something ? did not press reset either did not delete any folder.

hi, are you checked my file ? thanks

This is configuration folder. When i upgrade to 4.1 i lost every configuration, so i downgrade to 4.0 and restore from backup. Ij this okor there is an email or other reference where i can send zip file ?thanks PS i have a anycubic kossel plus with 2 extruder and 1 nozzle with a bowden Y splitter. thank again 4.0.zip

Yes i have a y splitter. What info do you need? The biggest problem for me is cura has a "feature" (they call.. For me is a bug) where at layer 1 (only at layer 1), second material is not primed on the prime tower. I solved adding a cube with a 1layer high, printed with material #2 before real part

No I lost All configs... Printer

previous version i was able to add ant STL file of the printer with display so i understand where is front... in this version i cannot understand how to add stl. It's a simple mod... why make profile is so difficult....?

i did not use it anymore, i use cura and let cura change material. http://marlinfw.org/docs/gcode/M600.html there is not so much parameter, how much retraction, how much up the nozzle so you do not touch pritned part, where to move nozzle if you need and not much other...

ok, how i can send the config files (i do not have it.. i made with wizard and test...) . there is a process or a directory to check ? where i can send it ? thanks

what about upgrade from 4.0 ? i'm still on 4.0 because upgrade to 4.1 will delete all configs

I tried to scan head of my son but was really bad scan result. I use my samsung s7 and an action cam but no result. Did you use a special or different cam?

oh.. perfect.... i missed it. thanks @ahoeben

Hi @johnse , yes i'm using a prime tower and not, i not enabled "prime blobs" (i'll try). I found a bug (they call "feature") where if you have 2 extruder, the 2nd estruder is not primed (on prime tower) on the 1st layer because they say nozzle is sitll clean. From layer #2 everithing is ok But if you have 2 material and 1 nozzle (like me with a y bowden splitter) when need to start 2nd material, nozzle is dirty of 1st material just printed..... So i solved creating a dummy object made of material #2 to print BEFORE real object.... an altenative prime tower you can say.... But cura did not explain hot prin order is made... so i make many test and found cura 4 print before object near center then the other (this on delta / circolar bed). Other users say cura print object from left to right (maybe with square bed..)

Hi all, there is a way on cura 4.x to temporary disable/change color to the hoverang zone ? sometimes i need to print red material (....) other times i know about hoverang zone but the red are annoy me on check the object... thanks marco
