How do I find the folder for the CuraEngine Tiled Infill Generation plugin new infills?

Posted (edited) · How do I find the folder for the CuraEngine Tiled Infill Generation plugin new infills?

I am using a Mac to slice my prints with Cura, and I installed the CuraEngine Tiled Infill Generation plugin. The plugin works fine, but I found some more infill patterns on the Cura GitHub, which uses the .wkt file type, and I want to use them. I also read that you have to put the .wkt files in a folder to do so, but I am unable to find which folder, and where it would be located on my Mac. Any help would be great, thanks!

    Go to the Cura configuration folder (in Cura go to Help > Show Configuration Folder), then you want to go to:

    plugins\CuraEngineTiledInfill\CuraEngineTiledInfill\tiles\

    Probably need to restart Cura to get it to pick up the new pattern.

     

    In case the configuration folder doesn't show up, for a Mac:

    Quote

    Macintosh HD\Users\[user_name]\Library\Application Support\cura
    'Library' is a hidden folder. To navigate to it quickly in a finder window, click 'Go' in the menu, hold 'ALT' to reveal the library window

        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.
