3.5.1 settings guide locks main screen

[mbunjes 0]

I would love to have the settings guide open when I tinker with the settings in Cura. At the moment this is not possible, you have to close the guide to be able to alter anything in the Cura settings.

Is there a way around that ? Maybe a future update ?

This is because the plugin is a system dialog. Your OS prevents the main window from being accessed when a dialog is active, so it's hard for us to do anything about that unfortunately.

Ah, bummer.

Thank you

It is because the plugin specifically defines it as such:

Couldn't it be treated as a separate file ? Export it to PDF or something ?
