Open Cura open the top tab that says "help: click on "Show configuration settings" it will bring you there automatically.

I found this both in local and program files, however, I haven't been able to locate were the profiles are. I was able to copy over my printers, extruders, and materials using dropbox sync but the only way iv been able to get my custom profiles is to use extension "Import Export Profiles" which you have to convert the profile to a .CSV file share it on dropbox then use the same extension on the other pc to import the .CSV file as a profile then save as new profile. Having an extensive amount of custom profiles dialed in for different materials and prints this will take days to accomplish using this method. Can anyone tell me what sub folder the profiles are in that way I can just transfer all of them at one time? Edit: I found the custom profile under "quality_changes"

If we have the ability to sign into ultimaker account on cura. Would it be possible to link the profiles in our ultimaker account and when we open cura it just search for changes and update that way? If most app games can do this via an account login like google play, steam, goat games, ext. Being open source this could be implemented via an extension or plug-in. Even if they could just be saved in or ultimaker account so we could download them from there, we have the ability seeing it automatically syncs my extensions I believe this could relatively be done the same way with printers, materials and profiles?

post op settings for above build

So one thing i noticed is that the plugin model is not even: Base = 4 layers ending on layer 4 Block 1 = 36 layers ending on layer 40 Block 2 = 38 layers ending on 78 Block 3 = 39 - there is one extra layer here under the table at 113 ending the table on 117 Block 4 = 38 layers ending on 155 Block 5 = 38 layers ending on 193 with 4 un-needed layers above the table finishing the build at a total of 197 So no mater were you put your offset or starting layer it wont ever 100% line up every Block should be the same. you can put your offset too 2 which would equal a change every 38 layers starting on 40, However with block three having an extra layer it will never come out equal (total)197-4(base)=193(total) 193/5(Blocks) = 38.6 layer per block 0.6(variance) X 5(Blocks) = 3 (total layers off) This is off by 3 layers. For this to work there would need to be 194 total layers counting the base.. However, even when I run this test print with post processing set up like the video above I get night and day results with no noticeable change in extrusion per block. The video also doesn't tell the viewer what presets should the extruder be put on 0-1mm. He doesn't explain that if you have a direct extruder that even 0.25 change will be drastic compared to other extruder types that will vary from 5mm to 7.5mm. He doesn't state about zhop setting or about relative extrusion setting. I think some of these videos are helpful but if your not explaining all that's needed your just giving the viewer a pass to take 2 steps back and get discouraged. I personally haven't found any good video about retraction towers at all other than this link below that more or less just explains why stringing happens. but there is not one extensive video out there that explains how to configure and calibrate a new real. Anyone can tell you to calibrate your temp, extrusion, flow and speed but If you dont teach the steps in between its pretty useless. I have two photos both ran with post production extruder tower scripts one started at 0mm and the other started at 1mm with relative extrusion on. there is no step up no change in extrusion at all and both prints are horribly different with a very minimal change of 1mm. how ever on the first print starting at 0mm it was suppose to raise extruder level by 1mm every block and at 5mm there is still the same stringing. When started at 1mm stringing is mostly 99% gone this states to me that the post processing script is not working at all. I can tell the temp tower worked because I can physically watch on the LCD the temp change. What Am I doing wrong? I cant calibrate flow or speed until this works. Why is it such a pain to get calibration help from the community without learning how to code... I just want the settings to do what there suppose to do.
