Thank you for the idea! I should really learn how to do this. I am currently using an external python program to do my post processing, and it would be nice to just have it built in. I'll look into it 🙂

After getting comfortable with programming moves in gcode, I wish it was possible to change percentage scales in Cura to the standard 0-255 scales. At least on scales that use 0-255 in gcode of course. This is so I don't have to write 1.563% fan speed for cooling if I want M106 S4. It can't be that hard to implement either, since going from 1.563 to 4 is surprisingly harder to do than going from 4 to 4.

Awesome. That wouldn't have been an issue for me since I have acceleration control on anyway, but that's still cool. I'm alright at reading gcode anyway so if I find any bugs, I'll report them back to you

F=m*a. Expecting constant acceleration with increasing mass, increases the force required to achieve those accelerations. A motor applying high forces gets warm. Even if it just slows down the print, that still gives the motor more time to cool off. From what I've understood, Cura isn't just meant for ultimaker printers, but rather a quite general purpose slicer. I might be wrong though, but supporting bed-sligners isn't exactly a bad idea for them to keep more people in their ecosystem.

That's awesome. I think it should be something in default profiles and such though, and it should ask you if your printer is a bedslinger if you're adding a custom printer. I get this isn't a big problem, but this could cause overheating on the motor near the end of large prints due to the high forces necessary

I'll make sure to share it there too. Thanks for the info

For bedslinger 3D printers, there should be a feature to gradually reduce acceleration as more weight is added to the bed. I sometimes experience my printer starting off silent and ending up somewhat noisy due to the added weight and force required to achieve these accelerations. This is of course only an issue with larger prints, but that's when it matters most. When the printer is going to be running for a while, and some people have their printer in their bedroom. I realize I can fix this myself too by making a simple python program, but it'd be nice to have an official setting.

When slicing with Hole Horizontal Expansion, It would be great for us to select exactly which holes that Cura found, we want the horizontal expansion to affect. Maybe have another button on the left for "Holes" and clicking on it reveals volumes that Cura found to be holes. I'm thinking clicking on them would enable or disable them. I'm aware of Hole Horizontal Expansion Max Diameter which is already great for only counting small holes, but it's not as powerful as being able to manually pick holes ourselves.

Did you find an answer ahoeben? I'm experiencing this too, still in 5.6.0. It crashes right after "Time spent with creating influence areas' subtasks:" specifically when using tree supports
