Having issues with importing global default printing profiles
Posted
· Having issues with importing global default printing profiles
I think you have a misunderstanding what a "global" quality profile is.
In Cura there are settings that are configured per extruder (which includes most material-specific settings) and settings that can not be varied per extruder. So if you have a dual extrusion printer, there are three profiles in play; one for each extruder, and a global one. A global profile can not exist without extruder profiles, and they are linked by the "quality_type". There can only be a single global profile for each "quality_type". If you want to have multiple profiles show up in Cura with the same "quality_type", you have to use "quality_changes" profiles instead of "quality" profiles, like the ones you make from within Cura.
