So you didn't move this back to the proper location for Mac software in time for the open beta? The current stable version of Cura uses the proper location.

@nilrog: No, sorry, we did not get round to changing that. Ironically, on windows we went from a .cura folder in the user's home folder to the proper location in AppData. One advantage of this "bug" is that it is possible to have both 15.04.x and 2.1 on the same machine without the two versions affecting eachother.
I'll check if there is an issue on our internal bugtracker to make sure the change is on our radar, but chances are very slim that it will be fixed in 2.1(.x). It should not be too long before 2.2 comes around though!
:-) Great!!!
Time goes by but finally it was worth it.
Nevertheless, one thing makes me sad... [..] Ultimaker Original (no dual extrusion support) [...]
I hope that somebody will take care of it as UM sell dual extrusion upgrades or even provides a (detailed) tutorial (also for non-SW guys) how to get it configured in the .json files....
Edited by GuestDual extrusion has never been really well supported in Cura. There's quite a lot of functionality already in the new Cura for dual extrusion but it is not disclosed to the user in a very accesible way for now. Our focus for the 2.1 release was on stable support for single extrusion.
I'm not sure I am allowed to speak about features in future versions of Cura, but feel free to jump to conclusions because I just said that I am not sure I am allowed to speak about features in future versions of Cura. You ain't seen nothing yet.
You could hack it together by adding the setting "machine_extruder_count": { "default": 2 }" to the .json
Then use per object settings to set second to be printed with extruder 1 and then merge those objects.

No worries. Although it would be sad if you didn't fix this for the final v2.1. It will only confuse your users. But then, I don't work for Ultimaker Support

That seems to be the way the stable version already works. It puts a "15.X.Y" folder in the "Cura" settings folder. So it is not a new "feature"
* ~\.local\shared\cura (Linux)
Should be
~/.local/share/cura
?!?
@berndjm: yes
Also you should clear
~/.config/cura

Sure, I could, but as it is in life, I´m a pro in many things but not SW design/programming/hacking :-)
I guess the extruder is not the only thing to modify - the head dimensions and extruder offset also have to be considered...
Currently the missing dual extrusion support is the main reason I´m staying on 15.04.
So custom firmware upgrade is definitely buried now?

For this version, yes. Permanently? No. To be honest, I kinda forgot about that feature. If people really want / need this feature, I'll make sure it gets added back into 2.x

I assume especially on UMO users it is relevant!
Honestly, I get the impression that the support for UMO users is gradually decreasing.... :-(
Not everybody has the budget to switch over to UMO+ or UM2 so PLEASE keep this in mind screwing on CURA...

Hopefully it will. Tinkergnome for um2 and Amedee for umo/umo+ firmware builder are a must if you want to do 'extrude' a bit more from the standard firmware.

I bet that they where doing so much last minute adjustments that they just forgot about it.

Pretty much yeah.
You can still use any other version of Cura to upload the firmware, it's not a big deal, you wil probably continue to have at least one version installed until the new Cura is not in Beta anymore (and at that moment it will probably be fixed)
The 2.1 release won't have extra features that the beta doesn't have. It will probably have some bug fixes & profile changes.
Well I can confirm dual extrusion slicing basically works
But I had to write a quick and dirty plugin to change the code sequence on a tool change. Cura generates something like
...G92 E0T1M109 S210.000G10...G11G1 ...
and I want this plain and simple like
G92 E0G10T1G11G1 ...
It's very likely that I'm missing some settings to make Cura do it more like I want (e.g. issue a retract before a tool change)
Edited by GuestIf it's a post processing script (or any kind of plugin really), feel free to make a pull request for that (or tell us where it's hosted). Other people might want it as well

Depends on your platform. On Windows, the installer should uninstall the program files for you, but it will leave your profile (settings, machine configuration, custom profiles, etc) intact. If you want to remove all your settings, remove the cura folder at the following location:
* C:\Users\[yourname]\AppData\Local\cura (windows)
* ~/.cura (OSX)
* ~/.local/share/cura (Linux)
Edited by GuestOopsied on the paths, thanks @berndjm
