I can read what happens in the gcode but I have my own news.
I've re-written part of the PauseAtHeight code. There are two main changes and some minor ones. One change moves the "Extrude" to before the nozzle goes back to the print so no more blob. The other adds multi-line capability to "Gcode before pause" and "Gcode after pause".
When I figure out how to do a proper Pull Request on GitHub I'll submit it. In the meantime I'm looking for beta testers. You need to copy one file to the Scripts folder in the Cura installation folder.
When I install Cura on my Windows printer I can't overwrite anything in the Cura folder. I must "share" the folder with myself and then it's OK. You might have to do something like that to get write privileges in the folder.
The following is for Windows. Mac and Linux should be similar.
In Windows go to "C:\Program Files\Ultimaker Cura 5.2.1\share\cura\plugins\PostProcessingPlugin\scripts". You will see the file "PauseAtHeight.py". Rename that file to "PauseAtHeight-old.py".
Download the file below. Extract the file and copy "PauseAtHeight.py" to "...\plugins\PostProcessingPlugin\scripts" folder. Start Cura.
You won't need to use the Search and Replace anymore. You can move that code and put it into the "Gcode after Pause" box. Instead of the "\n" between commands you put a comma. For example:
Method = M25
Gcode after Pause = G91,G1 Z5,G90,G1 X0 Y0 F6000,M117,M117,M117,M117,M117,M117
It's supposed to work. Let me know how you make out.

Hello again.
So I tried changing only the retraction when it pauses.
I used always the same filament and even testes pull it back a bit just like you said but still not working.
I always wait about 10 minutes afeter it pauses to kinda "simulate" a normal change filament.
How can I send a video showing what happens?
