Slicer problem

Hi,

I use an Ultimaker 3 Extended and 2 Extended + and dowloaded Cura 3.2.1. With many different shapes (from Thingiverse and drawn shapes on Catia, all imported as .stl) all fail to be sliced by Cura. I just have "Slicing...." and am unable to look at the Layer view: my shape is shown in grey but I cannot look at the layers. Saving the file as a gcode is possible but I have not tested printing a shape yet.

I have tried activating "Force Layer view compatibility mode" and dowloading a previous version of Cura (2.7) but neither were successfull. I have also tried uninstalling Cura and re-downloading the 3.2.1 version which also didn't work.

I have read different blog stating that there were problems with Windows 10 on which I am, and I now other people where Cura seemed to take an awfully long time to slice. 

Do you please have suggestions?

Thank you!

      • 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.
