[Issue] New instance of Cura opened for every stl opened

Posted (edited) · [Issue] New instance of Cura opened for every stl opened

Hi All,

 

Not sure how to word it so apologies in advance.

 

When opening an stl file from File Explorer (Win10), it opens Cura as normal. However, if I then try to open another stl from File Explorer, instead of adding it into the already opened instance of Cura, it opens a completely new instance.

 

Im convinced it never used to do this? Is there a way to stop this from happening?

 

Cheers,

 

Dylan.

    I don't know about that but you have 2 other options to add a second STL file to the same print:

    1) You can drag and drop the stl file onto cura

    2) You can do "file" "open" and open the stl file

     

    In both cases it should add the stl file to any existing stl files already loaded into cura.
