  1. someone on github got a script for adding every settings at the bottom of the gcode. That way you can tell what your settings were for that specific file. So thats a big help !
  2. change line width ? infill ? layer height ? everything on the spot like a list you just go : POOPPP push this button and the line width went from 0.4 to 0.2 or 0.15 to 0.6 ? never seen that on any printer yet lol
  3. haha yes im not hoping for it to come out tomorrow but could you imagine ? lol haha plug in would be a good idea. i cant make one either. HEY PEOPLE MAKING PLUG INS .... NDA PENDING, but letsgo ! lol hahaha wanna know another crazy idea ? the possibility to change line width, layer height, flow compensator, retraction etc on the spot without a script... it would make a big gcode but meh.... most machine now can handle it. Worse case put a full computer as a motherboard haha but seriously.... sometimes so many of my problems could have been solved by testing on the fly instead of reslicing and restarting everything. but thats fantasy until an actual printer on kickstarter make it that way.
  4. damn i mean yes i can go that route, but my suggestion is just to have it more user friendly because you know that 90% of people are not like us lol Ill be looking into your idea tomorrow probably ! but just for conversation sake, i think having it simplified for newbies would be great ( and also faster for advanced users ).
  5. oh okay perfect, First post, first time. i didnt know. I copy paste my idea there lol i have another idea too : change infill % at a layer height instead of the gradient. I can never make it work for my purpose. I would want the bottom 2mm to be 30% for the first 5-6 layers. Then 10% for the rest til layer 200, then i would go back to maybe 20% just to support the roof. again... crazy idea lol
  6. Hello there, Ive been using Cura for quite a bit ( not long in time, just extremely intensively lol ) and i came up to some frustration : When you try to chase a problem and you have to test so many different settings to get to a good final results, sometimes you dont think of writing down your changes. Sometimes you make it worse, sometimes you make it better. When you make it worse, but you changed the profile a couple times : it gets confusing to try to write down everything when youre running 9 printers, and troubleshooting different designs and prints at all times. So hear me out : what about a checkpoint system ? What about saving the changes of a profile and being able to access them. Maybe 5 of them ? maybe 10 ? So lets say your profile is called "0.6mm nozzle" and you make changes (1) and you save the profile. Then you make changes (2) and save the profile. Then you test them, it works on one, but not the other. So you do more changes (3) and save them. Now you realize the initial profile was the right one but youre too far gone. This is where my idea comes in : You have your profile "0.6 nozzle" but beside it, under it, right click, whatever the option : you can open and select the previous states and have them listed as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc etc. Maybe im crazy, but with the amount of testing im doing for different things, different finish, different material, different shapes and colours, it would be very handy. Thank you for listening to my crazy idea and have a good night ! lol
