I've been using Cura for 3 weeks with my only filament tweaking stuff, but just today I went to save preferences and realized I have no clue how saving them works. 3 weeks ago I either clicked on the "Fine" profile (or it just was default). Today when I went to save them I realized I didn't really know how. I looked for a button that might indicate this, but didn't seen one. So I clicked off the "Fine" profile and it asked me if I want to save. Great, but save to where? The old "Fine" setting or the new one I want?
In the machine settings I added a few lines to adjust my PID values for this filament, but are those saved per machine or per filament profile (I'm hoping per filament)? Also, I'm using 2 macros in the machine settings I found on the net; {material_bed_temp_wait} and {material_print_temperature}, but where's a complete list of those?
CURA is wonderful. I like how the meshes work to help tweak the settings of the model(s) and like the fact you can just search for a setting by typing it. People said this and Slic3r where settings overload, but it seems like just the right amount. Everything is very straight forward. But damn, the saving of settings is a little confusing to what gets saved to where and which files. I feel kinda of stupid as I spent a lot of time reading everything in CURA related to slicing and when to use it, using all of what I learned, but the 1 important fact of saving all my tweaks leaves me questioning what is going on (I guess something has to right).
