    using tabs

    Can the experts please fix up the tabs plugin so that I can go back to using Cura for intricate prints instead of Prusa, which I hate?

    using Tab+

    thanks for the reply ... I had previously read that wiki ... I still can't make it work ... and need them because the models I am printing have some very small areas .. 5 mms square .. touching the bed, and they often lift. I have switched to Prusa for these models, as they have a similar system where you can add parts (circles) to you model ... bit cumbersome, but works pretty well ... thanks for reply ... this plug in really needs work ....

    using Tab+

    I have been struggling with this plug in for about 2 months ... sometimes I can get it to work, but generally, it puts circles where the tabs are to go, but does not slice or print them. I have finally figured out how they work, so if you are having problems, there are a couple of simple steps to take .. Enable 'suppports' make sure 'support density' is set to 100% make sure 'support angle' is set to 90 degrees. (this stops the slicer putting any other supports in place) now just select your model, select Tabs+, and place them where you want them on the model. They should now slice and print ...
  5. I have been using the latest version of Cura for a while with no problems. Recently, I had cause to print very small parts, which would not take a brim, so I went for tabs. On slicing, however, I found that the latest version of Cura does not slice the tabs .. I have gone back to v5.2.01, and it slices the tabs fine. I liked the v5.3 .. is there a fix for this problem? Or maybe it is user error somehow? regards Dave.
  6. HI, I recently had cause to replace the heat break in my Creality Cr-6 with and all metal one. I have found that I need to increase the nozzle temp by about 5 degrees for all profiles. Is there a way that I can accomplish this globally, without having to modify each profile? I thought maybe there might be an option in the printer profile to increase the nozzle tem across the board but there is not. Is there any other way? thanks Dave.
