PS: In case anyone is interested, here's a pic of what I am trying to produce:

Hey guys, thanks a bunch, the ctrl+click methods appears to enable me to reselect all parts individually.
QuoteThat is a big model.
Thats what she said ^^
I belive this answers all my questions since these settings are hardcoded but I now can reopen my projects.
Cheers

Oh, a bug it is ?
Ive attached the .3mf in question. But I am uncertain how much that will help since this issue occurs with any and every project Ive tried to save.
-
If I save/export my project as a .3mf and open it at a later time with cura, I do not have my stl object with all the zones with different infill settings. What I have instead is a concatenated single object with the localized zones being part of it.
Ive attached an image of the reopened project and what I mean. For example, for the top tilted rectangle I cannot change the number of layers if a change there is necessary. The button on the left is greyed out completely, and a geometric adjustment is also not possible, since the object is geometrically fused.
-
Thank you for your quick reply. Is there any way around this limitation ? By means of a plugin or similar ?
Or is there a way at least to save the project in such a way that it can be reopened with all funcitonality ? Because the way it is now is that when I reopen a project with all the local changes, it appears hardcoded. I cannot change the geometry nor the settings of the individual regions with different infill settings.

Greetings dear builders,
I would like to change the default settings for the overlaps in Cura. Currently, whenever I select the overlap settings for infill only, I get wall thickness, wall line count and top/bottom thickness.
However, I work with big models and heavily rely on local changes in the print settings. So I would like a set of parameters and their values to pop up as default other than what is there now.
Can I change these with a config and how ?

Thank you for your suggestions. I tried them now but it is not exactly what I need:
When I change the settings for the overlap between my support blocker and the model and I change the number of walls to n, it does not change the total number of walls to n. Instead, it adds n walls to the models existing number of walls.
This is unsatisfactory as I am trying to fill overhanging regions and also trying to get the latter nice and smooth by making the outer walls adhere to the inner walls while relying a miniumum on the support structures to prevent a melted look.
What I am looking for is a setting that would either let me change the overall number of walls or let me adjust the printing order to outside in for all structures per layer, ie: infill -> inner wall -> top skin -> outer wall
-
I would like to request a feature or plugin allowing me to set a variable amount of walls for my print. I have, within the same object, starkly overhanging regions where additional walls are required to close the surface. However, I also have fairly vertical features wherein no more than 2 walls would be necessary.
Is there any simple way to achieve this with the present versions of cura `?
Cheers

Update: the littles tongues are drips from when the nozzle finishes the outer layer and proceeds to start the infill.
I can't believe I discover this now that it had driven me crazy enought to made a post.
I am currently experimenting with zhop height, retraction and priming as well as printing the infill first to solve all remaining problems.
-
Update: I finally discovered that the blobs appear to be drips being applied to the outer shell when the nozzle travels from the end of one layer to the start of a new one.

Greetings from Switzerland,
I am using a Modix 120X large scale printer with an E3D supervolcano and a 1mm nozzle to produce a prototype using cura 4.7.1. I have been tweaking the setting for a couple of weeks to get acceptable results with sufficient printing speeds (currently ~120g/h). However, the hopefully last remaining problems remain a mystery to me. To summarize them:
-irregular blobs on the inside of my object
-slight blobs, like tongues at the front layers
-irregular extrusion at the beginning of a new layer, as if there were bubbles in my hotend
-after finishing a layer with the infill, the nozzle does not move directly to start a new layer. Instead, it completes a very jittery, almost spasmic motion after lifting and across the already printed part. I believe this shaking motion plays a role in the aforementioned bubbles. Here is a vid of this.
My complete settings can be found here. Ive attached some pictures of the problematic regions. I do not have a picture of the bubbles currently, as this also appears to be an irregular event.
Happily looking forward to suggestions on how to remedy these nuisances,
Cheers !

I too would need this feature. Is there any way to locally change the acceleration and jerk settings ? I have an embossed font where I need the ghosting removed, which however has no significance on the rest of the model.
