Open/View upf flies

[lopezvilela 0]

Hi everyone,

 

I'm a new user of US5 and I've just realized that there is a new format (*.UPF). The problem I have is that Cura cannot open those files, but it can generate one. So, could anyone tell how I can open those files? I know that I can visualize them on the US5 screen, but, you know, it is no the best option.

 

Thanls in advance.

Hi,

 

just rename the file to .zip and unpack it. There might be another way to open it but I don't know about it.

That's the best way to do it under most operating systems.

 

The UFP package is (in it's current implementation) a wrapper for a .gcode file and a preview image. In the future, we might put more payloads in there.

Thank you!

 

It's a pity that you have to change the file extension in order to make it functional.

Well, that's windows for you ?

7-zip opens it just fine without renaming it.
