Cura 4.5.0 UM2 Olsson bloc

[Rouzic 0]

Hello,

I work without problems with cura 4.3.0 appimage in Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon kernel Linux 4.15.0-88 with an Ultimaker 2 printer with an Olsson block.

 

Cura 4.4.0, 4.4.1 and 4.5.0 appimage have always crashed at boot time since their release. I hadn't had time to go deeper.

 

Today I decided to run version 4.5.0 and reset all Cura configurations (mv ~/.config/cura ~/.config/cura.old and mv ~/.local/share/cura ~/.local/share/cura.old) on my PC.

 

I have started cura 4.5.0 appimage without any problems I have reinstalled all the plug-ins I use .

 

My problem is that I can't tell cura 4.5.0 that the printer has an Ollson block...
in Preferences/Configure Cura/Printer no Select upgrades button

 

No " "Advanced” settings tab" as described here https://ultimaker.com/en/resources/18022-setting-up-cura

 

Thank you for your help.

Almost solved by adding "UM2 with Olsson block" printer and not a simple "UM2" printer.

 

I now have the possibility to choose the diameter of the nozzle.

 

But no more generic material when I choose this printer. the list is empty. and for the UM2 too...

What's going on?

If you want to be able to select materials for the Ultimaker 2 in Cura, you have to go to Machine Settings and change the GCode FLavor to "Marlin".

It makes no difference.

I've conducted several tests:
Test 1
1) clean ~/.config/cura and /.local/share/cura
2) start 4.5.0.appimage
3) select the "Ultimaker 2" printer
     G-code flavor : ultimaker 2 -> No generic materials
     G-code flavor : repeater or marlin -> generic materials ok
Test 2
1) clean ~/.config/cura and /.local/share/cura
2) start 4.5.0.appimage
3) choose the "UM2 printer with Olsson Block" printer
   G-code flavor : "Ultimaker 2" or repeater or marlin -> No generic materials

 

In both tests the generic materials are installed

It works correctly in 4.3.0 version.

 

Cloud you help please!
