Prime Tower uses separate X,Y dimensions for each extruder

Posted · Prime Tower uses separate X,Y dimensions for each extruder

The prime tower with dual extruders allocates separate X,Y dimensions for each extruder (concentric squares) but on layers that only use one extruder, the square for the other extruder is not printed. When the second extruder is introduced, there is nothing underneath so the filament is extruded into empty space (i.e. printed in mid-air).

 

I believe the way this should work is that for layers that only use one extruder, the prime tower should have both squares printed with that extruder. When a layer uses both extruders, each extruder should print its allocated square in the prime tower.

    I am at a complete loss when it comes to reporting bugs in Cura. There is never any acknowledgement from Ultimaker and, of course, many versions of Cura released without a fix.

     

    I guess that means this is NOT the place to report bugs, but I can't find anything that says where bugs should be reported.

        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.
