I just installed  Linux on Chromebook and running Cura 5.3.1. I am able to drop and drag files as well as using the terminal to open the file in cura. 
 

When cura opens, the file folder on top left corner not opening as well as from the drop down file menu. After slicing the image and in preview it will only allow me to save to disk and not choose a file location to an SD card or usb. The drop down file menu save file or export is not working either. They are not grayed out just not doing anything.

    It appears whatever version of Linux people are installing on these Chromebooks lately is lacking some dependencies and permissions randomly. 

    If you search Chromebook on the community here you will find multiple different work arounds related to your very issue.

    Officially the ChromeOS is not supported by UltiMaker Cura.. and a large number of the Linux users with issues I have seen are related to using Linux on Chromebook hardware.

        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 🎄

        MariMakes posted a topic in UltiMaker Cura,

        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.
