Currently I am on Cura 5.3.1. I use a few saved personal profile and a few plug-in I installed (amongst others Printjob Naming, etc..). Will this configuration remain saved with an install of 5.5.0?

Thanks. I notice my filling density is 20%. The infill line distance was invisible untill I changed the profile setting and made it visible. When I change the filling density from 20% to 60% the filling line distance reduces from 6mm to 2.0mm. Is that acceptable?

In the attached project file below there are two bodies. In the left body there are four pillars (diameter 8mm) with a 4,2 mm diameter hole (15mm deep). They are situated in the corners of the larger rectangular shape. After printing I notice that these pillars are brittle and not fully filled. How can Cura be made to fully fill these pillars (except for the hole of course)? Nextion_5inch_enclosure_v3.3mf

Thank you for that helpful information! I downloaded and added this plugin to Cura. However, being totally novice, what do I do now to use this plugin? Erik EDIT: let me guess... open Cura, search for the plugin ('printjob'), select "install" button and restart. Plugin available under tab "Extensions", select "Custom Printjob Naming". Right?

Somehow every time a slice is made and the file saved to SD card, a prefix "AV-" is used in the file name. Where can this be modified? Erik

Thank you very much for that analysis!! I will take that into account in the future; I was not aware of these Cura sensitivities.

And here a new version of this same block, slightly different design; this one printed fine. Face down. AV_triangle block v3a-Body.3mf AV_triangle block v3a-Body.gcode

Strange, I had them printed with the open face looking upward, as in the blue picture..??

I can't remember except indeed I had the object flipped over to have the open face looking upward. Or: the gcode shows as it is entered in the printer (Anycubic Vyper).

No

Here it is Slashee, and thanks for that info! AV_triangle block v2-Body.gcode

Hi Slashee, the top edge, jus tlike all other outer edges, have been filleted, hence the rounded look. And the edge on top is as it was designed in Freecad, so no issue there. No, the size of the nozzle is not an issue although it is nice for you to mention that: I will include that in future Cura projects. Where do I find, or how to produce, the gcode file?

I have Ultimaker Cura 5.3.1 in use. I added the project file below. Thank you very much for willing to have a look at this issue! Erik AV_triangle block v2-Body.3mf

No, this is not a printer issue, nor a CAD issue (Anycubic Vyper and Freecad latest version). A picture of the printed model is attached: I set the lighting so that the bottom part is visible. The issue is that the ridge on the left is printed with the correct thickness; but the bottom part to the right is not at the same height, it is depressed. In the attached stl file the bottom part can be seen being at the same thickness as the ridge. Size of the bottom part should be 3mm but is actually something like 1.5mm; the ridge though is ok. Why does this bottom part not get printed on the same height as the ridge? triangle block v2-Body.stl

The stringing issue is solved. I replaced the entire hot end, heatbreak and feed tube section. This had become clogged with a bad quality of PLA, purchased from Sakata 3D filaments, a Spanish producer. Now I only use Prussa and Fiberlogy. Thanks anyway for all the suggestions in this thread!
