Posted · Fusion 360 to Cura: prints as single objects vs. one object for each component

I have recently replaced my main machine. Now, every time I print from Fusion to Cura, each component is treated as a separate object. This creates all sorts of headaches in Cura, because objects are pushed down to the build plate and lose their joints to each other. I am not sure whether this new behavior is due to some updates, or (more likely) to some erroneous setting in either Fusion or Cura. Can anybody shed light on this?

    This was, what I did in the past:

    https://community.ultimaker.com/topic/36953-printing-more-than-one-object-at-a-time/?tab=comments#comment-288819

    Here is an example:

    Blue are steps to print (I choose the top hierarchic for this demo)

    Red is the part I exclude from from the print.

    Result for Cura is one stl to print

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        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.
