  1. It's because in the Standard Profile of the AnkerMake M5 the Hole Horizontal Expansion is set to 0,2. Each time you have these tiny links then the inner wall are considered as a hole (Closed section) Then you get this 0.2 offset. Change this value to 0.

    Another thing I've never seen or noticed before: Running Cura in Administrator mode on Windows doesn't generate a log file?  Is this normal?  

     

     

    Wrong analyse the Log File is generate in the Administrator AppData Roaming Folder ( but when you ask to show the Current Configuration Folder it's the curent user folder which is opened by Cura !) 

  3. Another thing I've never seen or noticed before: Running Cura in Administrator mode on Windows doesn't generate a log file?  Is this normal?  


    So no log file, no tons of messages:

    2023-06-20 18:23:35,816 - CRITICAL - [MainThread] cura.CrashHandler.__init__ [69]:     super().loadAllMetadata()

     

     

    and at the end no message: 

    2023-06-20 18:23:35,821 - CRITICAL - [MainThread] cura.CrashHandler.__init__ [69]: RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object

     

     

    So Cura didn't crash, at least that's the conclusion I came to.

  4. A strange thing happened with version 5.4. Apparently in some printer configurations such as Ender, Elegoo , Weedoo... the printer definition included a list of non-compatible materials exclude_materials. This list included all generic materials. This didn't generate an issue until this last beta, as if this parameter had no influence... With version 5.4, the developers have apparently reactivated this parameter ???  Versions of these printers therefore display the following message:

    To temporarily correct the problem, edit the creality_base.def.json or similar base.def.json files and delete the exclude_materials entry:

    I'll have to double check with the team. Thanks for the report 💪

     

    Switch to 5.5 Alpha testing ( without Issue)

    It looks like I'll be sticking with Alpha ... they work much better (😁)

    This looks like the type of crash we reported internally. It would show up if you would load one 5.4 to another 5.4 version. 
    It was a cash issue related to: the implementation of this feature.

    Could be ...   Lot of message with :

     

    UM.Settings.ContainerRegistry._updateMetadataInDatabase [437]: Removing corrupt database and recreating database. no such column: icon

     

    But stange that I'm the only one with these issues ... And the last Alpha doesn't have any issue ... A little bit frustrating 

  7. Parce que Cura ne gère pas le Color Mix  et que ces valeurs doivent être définies en dur dans le Gcode d'entête dans la config de  l'imprimante ...  Donc tu peux bien définir la couleur de l'objet que tu voudras ca changera rien au final ?

     

    Après il me semble avoir lu un post sur ce sujet ou un code de démarrage était indiqué où a défaut de définir un color mix on pouvait au moins paramétrer les 3 régimes d'extrusions S0 S1 S2 : https://talent.paperblog.fr/9176220/geeetech-a10t-comment-imprimer-en-1-2-ou-3-couleurs-avec-cura/ 

     

    Je précise que n'ayant pas cette machine c'est tout ce que je peux dire à propos de cette solution. 

  8. Cura Alpha 5.4 Testing 105

     

     

    The problem with the Support Horizontal Expansion parameter reported by @GregValiant is still present. If the Tree Support option is activated, this parameter changes the result of the supports, but it is not visible in the parameter list.

     

    Support with a Support Horizontal Expansion = 2mm

    Support with a Support Horizontal Expansion = 0mm

  9. Support Placement "Touching Buildplate"

    image.thumb.png.bf20fa69ecc66397091cb859bc3ec0f5.png

     

    On this example some area are not supported because of the Maximun Branch Angle limitation, and it's normal.

     

    Now if we switch to the Support Placement "Everywhere" + Rest placement : Force Only Buildplate   we have this result

    image.thumb.png.a2691c6847ff1421621979292c27c8b5.png

     

     Some of the support trunk start from the Model : So despite we have requested "Force Only Buildplate" We got some support starting on the model . So that's why I say you should not call this option "Force Only Buildplate" but "On Buildplate as possible" 

     

    Now if the use the option : "On Model if Necessary"  we have this result :

     

    image.thumb.png.71adfba4174d77d5367c293d0ef83357.png

     

    In this case it's not "On Model if Necessary" because has the have seen in the previous image, We have the possibility to get a result where some trunk start from the Buildplate so it's not Necessary  but  Required ?

     

    So I would prefer

     

    Support Placement : Touching buildplate. Support will be created only from the buildplate, And if it's not possible due to branch parameter limitations, we will not have any support for the unreacheable area.  

     

    Support Placement : Everywhere

    • Rest Placement : On buildplate as possible . Support can be created everywhere but as much as possible starting from the buildplate and in some case we can have some support starting from the model.
    • Rest Placement : On model if required , support can be created everywhere and if required you can have support starting on the model. And Sometimes Required means they start on the model because you have more direct or simple support if you start on the model.

     

    And concerning Rest Preference , yes it's not really explicit;  Positioning Refinement ?

  10. Not sure you can use this script with this machine. The Gcode of a UM S5 have some M104 instruction added by Cura and I don't think you can use a temptower postprocessing script in this case. But As I'm not a USer of this machine I cannot comfirm this first analyse.

     

    Edit :

    image.thumb.png.d38803bc56cc8a16e39bbf55a8111c1a.png

     

    UM S5 are using the Auto temperature option so Temperature are modified according to the extruded volume.  The Script doesn't work in this case because the value are also changed by cura.
