Posted · Cura 5.3 multi-material blobs

Hi,

I'm a newbie to Cura, but not to printing with multi-materials.  I'm migrating to Cura 5.3 because the interlocking structures feature is a super idea and could save me hours of tweaking Gcode from Slic3r (used for over 10years now)!

 

I've tried the CrocClip projects from Thingyverse, but a have a huge problem with the resulting Gcode : when the head pauses to adjust the nozzle temperatures for either head, it pauses OVER THE PRINT and thus leaves blobs on the surface (the temperature change can take, like, 30seconds n- and one or both nozzles start to ooze during this time).

 

Is there a way to tell Cura to pause OUTSIDE of the print perimeter to avoid the blobs (which become obstacles for the print heads) ?

 

Thanks in advance,

Glenn

        UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released

        ArunC posted a topic in UltiMaker Cura,

        In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!

        Cura Alpha With New Tree Support 🎄

        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
