No more print profiles showing up after selecting custom material

Posted · No more print profiles showing up after selecting custom material

Hi

Maybe it has been already posted, but some queries haven't reported my issue.

I'm running Cura 3.04, from a fresh install on OS X 10.12 (Sierra) after having the below issues migrating from 2.7 to 3.0 then 3.04.

I have created or duplicated materials from Ultimaker materials to create for example ColorFabb XT.

If I prepare a print with Ultimaker CPE or Generic CPE, I have some generic print profiles showing up in the dropdown list or in the Profile Manager.

As soon as I select my custom material, no more profiles, nor options to create / update profiles.

By miracle, I have managed to create a custom profile in the past with version 3.0 and it will show up in the profile manager when Ultimaker or generic material is selected.

Currently I'm using the same method as in S3D, creating a project for each set of material / profile, but it's a PITA.

Anyone has a idea to solve the issue ?

Thanks in advance

    Unfortunately, this is by design. Cura has material-specific quality profiles. If you select a material for which there are no material-specific quality profiles, Cura does not make them up for you.

    Hi ahoeben

    Thanks for the info.

    If I create a custom profile for the material, it should show up in the manager. Currently it is not the case, that's the issue.

    Is it related to the install ?

    I am also experiencing this problem. After installing the latest update the print profiles are all gone, even my customized ones.

    As a side note, my Ultimaker 3 also struggles to print any sort of infill now, at least with Ultimaker brand transparent PLA.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.

      • Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released
        Cura now supports Method series printers!
         
        A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials
