Every time you 'Save to File' you need to change the 'Save as type' from gcode to ufp. How do I set ufp as default? I don't see it anywhere in settings.

    Having a look, about the only way you might be able to do it is by editing the source code for the "Save to Disk" button, and to figure out what exactly to change would probably require a pretty deep dive into the code. I don't think there are any options in the program to do it.

    I was wrong. Just scroll down to @ahoeben's post.

    The correct way to do this would be to use a printer definition that sets the `file_formats` to include `application/x-ufp`, like the Ultimaker S5 definition for example does here:
