[Ultimaker Cura 4.13 beta]

Perhaps the Mods could group, and sticky all the threads on this topic.

What with 13 being launched an all

[Cura 4.8.0 running extremely slowly with multiple models]

I split a "letters" thing using mesh tools

28 items on the plate

locked up a gigabyte gaming laptop I just bought because it ran slow adding support blocks on my old embedded graphics machine. about 8~12 sec per execution with that load.

 

dunno if that is normal or not

 

but Its very reproducible, so I'm sure the devs are aware

[Lost profiles after updating]

I got your attention.

 

And that, is FAR MORE

than Lobo got

 

I, received a detailed response that had thought put into it.

 

Simply by scratching that ego.

 

So, 

numbers 1-5  are a list of workarounds to a problem.

Thats a fact jack.

 

This is software is meant to be used by the general public, yeah?

 

ANY

 

ANY

 

ANY

 

update must be invisible to the user

 

 

If ANY action is required by the end user to recover lost functionality, caused by the user hitting the "update" button.

FAIL

 

ALL

 

ALL

of their old personal settings must appear as they did before, or Fail.

 

 

So,

 

By the time version 4.20 rolls around, I'll test the

 

"update function"  with the 4.9 on my old laptop. itll have 1 custom dummy profile on it.

If it functions like consumer software, and brings the user settings forward into the new version seamlessly, without ANY

of your 1-5 steps of repair, I'll give it a go.

 

Learning takes time, I spend mine on CAD,  not fixing cura.

 

Why don't you send LoBO and the others a PM, with your actual answer,.... They may be receptive to actual help

not some "send me a log" shite,..fucktard

Good Morning

 

Poor Lobo, the OP and Johnwebbcole above,

 

asked a reasonable question regarding a clearly common failure of the software

 

lack of updatability

 

Every time the CURA team (yea cura)  release a new version

 

the ONLY  way to use it,  is to throw away all your previous work, and start anew

hand transcribing 496 settings

 

It is the sole reason  thousands of users  eschew the benefits of updated software, and continue to use the version that shipped with thier machine.

 

Of course this is only after wasting personal time chasing the greyed out fallacy of 

 

"IMPORT"

or 

"EXPORT"

 

Cura should hire some `GUI engineers, to help the sharp folk who write the slicer code, interact with humans.

 

and Tards like nallath, asking for logs, thats a customer service "eff off, its lunchtime"  response.

REAL BAD for growing the community

[Tenlog Printer Company Not Showing in Add Printer for Cura Slicer]

Greets All

 

Necro, but pertinent.

 

I bought a dl3 from tenlogs amazon store a couple months ago, been slowly getting it assembled, correctly, discovering all the partially tightened fasteners, protecting 110vwires rubbing on cut extrusion, etc.

 

Time has come to setup the slicer, and  I could not find the machine in the long list of the 4.9 cura I had installed to my HP  in preparation.  I found folders with instructions on the SD card that came with the machine. in there, directions to cleanly uninstall any other version of cura, taking care to manually removing the .cura folder etc.  then installing the cura 4.8, that was on the SD. that worked, offline, and I find myself here,  Odd first post, pretty specific, but, Hi everyone.

 seeing that there tenlog in the dropdown,  I also found some prominent leads to a cura profile on the TL wbsite, so, I think were gonna be ok.  it runs marlin I see, 

I guess now I will try to upgrade to 4.11, and keep the profile

 

anyway, Its just a profile, from my extensive youtube education watching,  I should be able to find good starting points from the community, and create a profile for my machine that way,  and do it in the latest version of the slicer software, like a normal machine.

 

If anyone has gotten Cura/tenlogdl3pro to play well, updated drivers firmware etc   PM me,  I could use a hand

 

I got the version with the 2209 chips fwiw
