Cannot add new material profiles

[1337Slewis 2]

Hi guys,

I am trying to add a new material profile for PETG, but after filling out 2-3 fields the software cancels the adding of a new profile and selects the ABS profile at the top of the list.

I have tried duplicating and creating, both same result. I have added material profiles before without a problem, but now it is not playing ball.

I have the latest update, restarted PC, everything I can think of.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Changing/Entering new data into 'Material Type' or 'Brand' seems to delete it

Hi. I have the same issue and not sure what to do now. Can someone help?

I'm having the exact same issue trying to add a PETG profile. It's getting super irritating.

You don't state which machine your using, but had similar problems with my UM2 whilst trying to add PVA - looks like Ultimaker do not allow any 'materials' they think your machine can not run ?

Have a look at this thread - I found a way around this problem ?

UM3, but its rather irrelevant seeing as the issue is Cura.

Thanks for link mate, you're a legend. This should get me there
