    Daid,

    Thank you for your reply.Here is another problem.

    Is there any possible that I write a program based on the curaEngine without pay much attention to the your code ? That is I just see curaEngine as a lib,and I use it with my software ui,like the using of clipper in your program.

    If you do that I suspect you need to publish the source code also with the same license. Is that okay for you or are you working for Makrbot and need everything closed source?

    Firstly,I am a student and just want to do some job in 3d print ,not just focus on the using of finished software.What I really interested in is the algorithm behind it.

    Thank you for your kind reply.

    That's pretty much what the Cura GUI does, it calls the engine as a stand alone thing.

    But, even as a student, you have to be aware of the license. As it can conflict with your university "contract", it's not uncommon for universities to have some "everything you make for the university is property of the university" clause somewhere.

    AGPL is there to protect the users from lockin, it's good to know what it means for you as a developer.

    Actually, almost all universities have such a clause, especially when you are working on a thesis.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        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.
