Thank you. I spent the better part of the morning doing just that and got close enough. Anyway, while this thread is up, is there any way to disable the automatic rotation of models upon import?
How do I import a profile from a newer version of Cura into an older version?
Don't think I've had that particular problem, but in Preferences > General you could try turning off Automatically drop models to the build plate. Not sure if that'd fix it, just about the closest thing I can think of. Just remember that if that does work if models are added in midair you'll need to manually move them down to avoid either a lot of unneeded support or a lot of spaghetti, depending on whether you have supports on or not.
Thank you for the suggestion. It didn't work, but it was worth trying at least. I remember when Cura lacked the functionality to automatically orient imported models; everyone was wishing for it and even wrote plugins to achieve exactly that. It's funny (and inconvenient) that now it is impossible to NOT have it.

It's a bit of a hassle, but Cura profile files are plain text files. You can open up a .curaprofile in a text editor and then just read the settings from the file and input them manually into a new profile.
