  1. That's actually pretty cool. So my model quality overall should be improved with this setting enabled? I'm tempted to disable it just to get a look at the differences. At the moment the coasting stuff only seems to be applying to my monoprice Minis, so it actually won't end up affecting anything related to me more serious work. Thanks for sharing all this information it's great to learn more. Especially since Cura is what I recommend to all my students. I should probably take a weekend to go in-depth and just learn about every setting specifically.
  2. @Ahoeben is correct. The monoprice mini has some bizarre layer heights like .13125. Cura 4.0 and 3.0 were aware of that and had profiles to match those layer heights natively. Cura 3.0 cut everything off at 4 decimal places though, which wasn't particularly awful since that covered most layer heights for the mini anyway. But now that its down to 3 I'm really held back. It's especially frustrating because if I go to a default profile that goes to 4 decimal points it'll allow it, but the second I touch the layer heights myself I'm stuck back at 3. Another issue I've noticed is that my models are getting these weird holes all over the place ever since I updated. It's not particularly bad if it's my students models, like the one shown, but I work with fluids and these holes make the models I use to make a living unusable. I've gone back to 3.6 atm and the holes are there too. I'll have to figure out what version I was on before I lost all my profiles. It'll put holes in perfect cubes too. Which makes me think maybe it's a visual thing that I'm just not understanding? I loaded a perfect cube onto the platform and one of the edges was just removed. Here's an image of the holes
  3. I'm unable to enter custom layer heights greater than three decimal places long. It was already extremely aggravating in 3.0 to be limited to four decimal places, but now in 4.0 I'm limited to three?!? That's infuriating, especially because when I select a default profile that has four decimal places it will use that as the layer height. But if I want to enter my own to save time and tweak settings without setting up entirely new profiles? I'm screwed. The only reason I'm even using 4.0 is because 3.0 lost all my profiles for the second time, is there any way to keep that data from disappearing? I use Cura for my own work and for educating my students, losing all my profiles has been debilitating.
