I have tried to change the extruder in use to #2 (T1), but the printer continues to print from the first extruder (T0).  Please offer suggestions.  Printer is Geeetech A20T & Slicer is Cura 5.3.1

    Happened to me today just a little bit ago. Did one print fine. Next print, it all of a sudden switched everything to extruder 1. I have everything set to extruder 2, and extruder 1 is DISBABLED in the settings, yet for some reason, all of a sudden, the gcode produced is always for extruder 1 instead of extruder 2.

    This is the second time this has happened to me. 

    The only resolution I;ve found is to completely uninstall and reinstall cura (giant PITA).

    To get this fixed I need you to do two things please.  The first thing is to upload a project file.  Go to menu "file" "save project as" and post that.  I'll verify the bug, then I'll tell you the second thing.

        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.
