Hello,

 

I have installed the Owens Corning XSTRAND GF30 PA6 from the market place but I can not find them under the materials section. Where can I find in the application?

Have you restarted Cura?

I have multiple times, Also restarted my computer. Still cant find it.

[Smithy 1,144]

Strange, I just tried it here and it works as expected. Installed the material and restarted Cura.

 

 

Have you tried to uninstall and install it again?

This is what I am getting when I uninstall and re-install the material. Weird. Can't seem to find it anywhere.

Is there a way where I can download the material online then import it to Cura? 

[Smithy 1,144]

As far as I know, no....

@nourelmenyawi I would try a fresh clean install of Cura. Your installation also lacks the Ultimaker materials as far as I can see. For a clean reinstall, you have to remove all data in the configuration folder. Help->Show configuration folder shows you the the way.

I will do and try again and let you know. Thank you for your help.

I have managed to find it in the second extruder but not the first extruder. Any idea why this is happening?

Oh, I missed that one completely. You selected the CC 0.6 core. The material you want to print has no profile for that print core. Therefore it is not in the list. Select an AA 0.4 core in extruder one and you will have the material available.
