[Bug: Bridge settings prevent changing direction of lines.]

Did you ever find the solution to get cura to do the shortest path instead of the longest path when bridging?

[Is there a way to get Cura to skip infil altogether in areas that are too small?]

I'll often find tiny structures with little to no need for infill at all and I'd rather have them be hallow.

 

Is there a way I can set a type of Minimum Infill Area, but have it not filled in 100%? Have it be 0% instead? 

 

 

[[BUG] New 4.8 "arrange" algorithm places models to collide with each other]

Both dragging in multiple models, and multiplying models causes them to collide and overlap with each other. Pretty obvious unintended use, as this will cause a ton more time spend rearranging objects.

[Ultimaker Cura 4.8 BETA is available]

Looks good. The only feedback I've always wanted was the ability to hotpatch and update Cura directly in client, instead of having to uninstall, and redownload every single time.

[Rename printer not working?]

I had the same problem today and ran into this thread. Wow. Such a simple and random error to happen all the way in 4.7. I would have expected this in like, a beta release. I'm more curious as to how this could even happen. 

[Cura 4.0 thin wall - 3 layers]

I imported both of these and cant seem to get it to work.

 

It's full of sporadic movements

[Why is my speed much lower than my my setting speed?]

What are the F numbers in the gcode like?  At 26mm/sec you should see F1560 below  a line that is ";TYPE:WALL-OUTER".   If you see F840 then yes, it's moving pretty slow. 

I don't know that analysis software but I can't see anything in your preview that is as dark a blue as the left end of the scale is.  At the right end - is your travel speed 190 or are you printing that fast?

That's cura if you set the color scheme to speed

[Why is my speed much lower than my my setting speed?]

Look at the outer walls. It should be 26, not 18.27. This is not a minimumlayer time issue, I have that set to 1. What else could it be?

 

[Why is my speed much lower than my my setting speed?]

This outer wall is suppose to go at 26mm/s. It's showing as 14. I've exhausted every explanation and there are no results for something this niche. What edge case is this.

[Is there a way to force Cura to print a single inner wall?]

Hi. It's now cura 4.7 and this issue is still ongoing; there's a requirement for minimum wall flow stating you must print outer walls first, and that's terrible. I dont' want that. Is there any reason why it can't just underextrude that inner wall for 3 walls total?

[Why is there no minimum "skin-fill" area]

So for top skin filling (the yellow diagonal cris-crossing), I notice on some holes it won't do it if it's too small. I want to know where to modulate this setting. I want it to not fill in very small holes and gaps. If there's a minimal infill area, why is there no minimal skin area?

[Coasting does not apply on small extrusions, even if set to do so]

Coasting does not seem to apply on exceedingly small extrusions, even though the threshold is very clearly set to do so. This results in a lot of blobs and bumps on the print that render it unacceptable. We need coasting applied to all extrusions.

["Modify settings for overlap" still generates redundant walls]

I think I may have found an easily replicatable way to reproduce this. If you rely on wall line counts rather than thickness (in mm) to increment your wall/skins, you need to specifically have those turned to 0 too. This is an easy fix in the cura code as youd just need to add an if in there.

["Modify settings for overlap" still generates redundant walls]

What format do you expect a project file to be in? Just the gcode?

[[IMPORTANT] Cura CANNOT save files with periods in them]

bump

["Modify settings for overlap" still generates redundant walls]

I used a support blocker cube to generate an overlap area for this example. Whenever you use an overlapping shape to influence a main object will always create extra walls wherever these overlaps occur. 

 

 

[Why is my vase bumpy despite being smooth?]

I'm making a vase with a spiral pattern and these little microbumps in the wall seem to appear 

 

I have literally no idea how this  is. What can possibly cause this.

[[BUG] Cura CANNOT load relative extrusion files]

Here's the outer wall of a simple 20x20x1 square, if you slice it with relative extrusion.

You get these really thin lines, and travel lines, and that's about it. I don't understand it. It SHOULD look like the below figure. 

 

 

 

This error does not happen when sliced with absolute extrusion checked

[[IMPORTANT] Cura CANNOT save files with periods in them]

If you have a decimal or period (say, dot version numbers) in the lower left name, cura will truncate that string early right at the period and replace it with .gcode

 

[Is there an Ignore skin fill for small gaps fill option anywhere?]

So I have this structure of small rectangles. If I use 3 walls, they leave a (desired) gap in the middle, and there are only two walls. If I use 2 walls, it proceeds to fill it. I think for 2-wall option, it would make sense to leave it empty, but I don't know how to do that. Fill small gaps is already disabled.

[Supports keep adding interface layers where they shouldn't]

Okay, so after a ton of digging, I think I may have found an answer to my own question, and I hope it helps other people who have encountered the same problem. The trick is to set your min xy to 1mm or something high. 

[Supports keep adding interface layers where they shouldn't]

I keep getting these weird little tiny subinterface layers that aren't really supporting anything and it's infuriating. I don't know what's causing it. 

 

This is just one simple super clean super easy overhang with nothing complicated, and it does this. Why. Here's one layer up: 

 

I've tried modulating resolution to no avail

 

[When are we getting variable layer height?]

Suppose you want the first 20 layers to be .2 layer height, and the rest of the print to be 0.3. done. Simple and clean. What so hard to understand? It's a pretty straightforward setting to have. Adaptive layering is straight up not the same you can't compare those two

[When are we getting variable layer height?]

S3d has this, and I think so does PrusaSlicer. I really need this for an up and coming project. When Is cura getting the ability to adjust CONTROLABLY variable changing layer hegihts?

[[Bug] "Retract before outer walls" does not work.]

@burtoogle in S3D, there's this absolutely crucial setting called extra restart distance and I can't find anything equivalent to it in cura. I searched the GitHub and only found that people have attempted to put in a negative number for "Retraction Extra prime amount" in an attempt to emulate how S3d does it but I dont know if that's correct (it turns orange when you enter a negative value) but I figure I might as well have on. It's a very clean and intuitive way to implement this, and I think CURA would serve to learn from it. Unfortunately I'm still getting blobs at the seam start.
