New mimetype: howto register it?

[Daniel26 0]

Ok, found the source of my problems...

Cura registers the plugins in alphabetical order. The log starts at "C", the amf-reader was not listed in the log, but it was loaded. So I renamed my plugin-folder to something starting with "Z". And then I saw errors in the logile.

I had some missing imports. Thats all. After I corrected that the plugin was loaded fine.

 

My plugin simply was loaded before the logging starts.....

A better place to store the plugin is inside the ````"plugins" folder in the Configuration Folder (See Help->Show configuration folder). Then you won't have this issue.

 

A propos, that is why I asked (twice!) where you place the plugin files.

The file are in a seprate folder in the plugins dir.

 

I answered that. I didn't realise that there is another plugin folder.

But I think its a bug in Cura. All the Plugins before the Console Logger are also not Logged. Perhaps the logging starts with the ConsoleLoggerPlugin? The Renaming this Plugin so it is loaded at first would make sense.

 

But I found another bug that crashes Cura completely.

 

Thanks for your patience.
