Feature request - nozzle profiles(?)

[treetopped 0]

Hi,

 

I think that Cura is missing on Nozzle/Quality setting front.

 

Just lately I have been changing nozzles a lot, mainly between 0.4 and 0.6.

While printing with 0.6 nozzle, I like to use layers of 0.3 mm.

Similarly it is 0.4 for 0.8 nozzle.

And it will be 0.1 (0,15 initial layer) for 0.2 nozzle, when I get to printing tiny.

 

Since there is already material and nozzle dialog in "Prepare" view (top of the screen), maybe it would be possible to add "nozzle profiles" similar to material settings.

After changing the nozzle size, relevant settings could be updated in Quality block.

 

Or approaching it from the other side, maybe Quality profiles could be make more flexible?

I could live with different Quality profile for each nozzle, but just now these profiles mix all global settings, and it is not working well when I change both nozzle and material.

 

Maybe there is some workaround, in that case please let me know 🙂
