    Say you stumble upon a party. Well, stumbled upon... you've been hearing about this nice recurring family thing from your friends; they hand out this nice apple pie there. Completely free, very nice pie. Friendly folks... You have a good time.

     

    Couple weeks later, you come back expecting great pie again. For free ofcourse. Turns they've put some more cinnamon in their pie. Because lots of people said their pie was better with lots of cinnamon, and these cinnamon lovers even put up youtube videos about how to add cinnamon to the pie. Problem is, lots of people got cinnamon in their nose when eating this modded apple pie, and cinnamon up your nose isn't all that great. Because it is much better to bake the cinnamon into the pie, the friendly family starts to do just that: add more cinnamon to the pie before baking. You know, as a nice gesture to all those guests who came in asking why there is not more cinnamon in their pie.

     

    Problem is: some people like the original pie better.

     

    Do you think it is a good idea to break down the door of the nice family and scream from the top of your lungs "What did you do?! YOUR PIE IS COMPLETE GARBAGE!". Do you think the family is inclined to give you more pie?

     

    What I am trying to say: you come across a bit rude and ungrateful.

    You're right I am, because I keep having problems, and lots of bugs keep ruining stuff, custom profiles keep disappearing (not while upgrading),...

     

    But you're right I am just pissed off because this problems mean days work went to hell.

     

    Today I switched to ideaMaker and it works great even with some quick and dirty settings.

    Will Cura support Model Cut?

    I don't think we will have this feature in the near future. It's a feature that I really want, but I'm not the one setting the priorities.

    Too bad. I think it's a primary feature to have in a slicer program. Weird that it's not in Cura yet.

    BUG? Cura Post Processing Plugin Errors

    I have an Ender 3 Pro and I have been experiencing trouble with multi color prints.


    I've tried:

     

    Pause at height: (retraction doesn't work in this case, is there a retraction limit? 30 works, but 300 doesn't)

     

    Pause Layer: 10
    Park Print Head X: 0
    Park Print Head Y: 0
    Retraction: 300
    Retraction: Speed 50
    Extrude amount: 50
    Extrude Speed 3.3333    
    Redo Layers: 0
    Standby Temp: 0

     

    Filament Change: (if you select layer 11 it will stop at layer 10 to change filament, just WHY? It also pushes filament OUT just before the initial retraction and creates a mess on the print)

     

    Layer: 11 (I want to enter 10  because I wanted a change at 10)
    Initial retraction: 30
    Later Retraction Distance: 300
    X Position: 0
    Y Position: 0

     

    One would think somebody else noticed these problems before me?

     

    What am I doing wrong? I can't wrap my head around it.

     

    EDIT:

    I just tested new settings that print great, but I still have to retract the filament out by hand since the retraction doesn't work to 300.

     

    Pause at height: 

     

    Pause Layer: 10
    Park Print Head X: 0
    Park Print Head Y: 0
    Retraction: 30
    Retraction: Speed 50
    Extrude amount: 100
    Extrude Speed 3.3333    
    Redo Layers: 0
    Standby Temp: 0
