CURA 4.11.0 Bug, Greying out huge parts of model for no reason

· CURA 4.11.0 Bug, Greying out huge parts of model for no reason
What you have there is a bad model. There are 30 different parts combined and a lot of incomplete areas.
When the "model is not watertight" warning comes up it indicates problems with the model. Each slicer handles the models a bit differently. MS 3D builder noticed the problems right away and was able to repair the model. It then sliced correctly in Cura.
This is Cura in X-Ray view. The bad areas are highlighted.
This is from IdeaMaker and you'll notice in the right lower corner "model invalid".
Here it is sliced in IdeaMaker
This is PrusaSlicer and it also looks a lot like Cura sliced it.
The other 15 slicers I have installed came out pretty much the same. That's a bad model.
Here comes Cura 5.9 and in this stable release we have lots of material and printer profiles for UltiMaker printers, including the newly released Sketch Sprint. Additionally, scarf seams have been introduced alongside even more print settings and improvements. Check out the rest of this article to find out the details on all of that and more
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
