Saving and loading scripts?

Posted · Saving and loading scripts?

The situation: I have an STL that I use as a heat tower. I have used the "Change at height" script to alter the nozzle temperature progressively throughout the print, and saved it both as GCODE and as a 3MF project file.

 

This script is persistent the next time I open Cura, when it is not necessarily appropriate, and I have to delete it manually for the next job.

 

If I then load the Heat Tower 3MF project file, Cura loads all the print parameters I had set for it, but doesn't load the temperature changing script. If I want to reenable that, I have to recreate it from scratch.

 

Is there any way I can save a script so that I don't have to rebuild it every time I want to use it? Or better yet, can I save a project file with the script intact so that it loads with the project?

        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.
