I accidentally changed nozzle diameter in my profile and now when I activate different printers using the same profile the diameter doesnt change according to the printers settings. How can I remove ONLY the Material Diameter?

    In Cura, whenever you've manually changed a parameter, you should see a curved arrow next to the parameter's edit box. Clicking this arrow reverts the setting to its default, and causes the profile to no longer change that setting.

    Yes I know, but the setting is stored (It is IN the profile) so the revert arrow isnt displayed.

    Well, there's one surefire way to make whatever change you want to a profile:

    * In Cura, choose "Show Configuration Folder".

    * Exit Cura.

    * In the file-explorer window for the configuration folder, open the "quality" folder.

    * Locate the .cfg file for the offending profile.

    * Open it in a text editor.

    * (Carefully) make whatever changes you want. In your case, just find the line for the offending material-diameter setting and delete that line.

    * Save your changes and exit the text editor, and restart Cura.

    I followed your procedure, but my Quality folder is EMPTY .

    Not the best way, but maybe the easiest way:

     

    you can edit them with the printer settings plugin:
    Click "marketplace" in upper right of cura, make sure you are on "plugins", scroll down and alphabetically among the "P"s is "printer settings" plugin.

    Thank you for the tip, the config folder does not show in 4/80 Cura ?

      • 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.
