They contain models and settings and can be shared with people who have different printers. +- Introduced settings that define the raft offset for top, middle and bottom raft layers +- Introduced an analyzing tool in the cura engine to better track slicing crashes, and started fixing the biggest reports coming in. +- New Primetower option; Sparse, next to the current Bucket, contributed by @wawanbreton +- Brim only on the inside setting +- Allowing to define print sequence manually when printing One at a time, contributed by @alexandr-vladimirov (Github) +- Introduced a setting to apply Monotonic ordering to the Raft Top Surface +- Introduced a Raft Wall Line Count for the Bottom, Middle and Top of the raft +- The play speed of the nozzle in the preview is now closer to the movement of the printhead +- Introduced an option to choose Drop Model to Buildplate every time a project file is loaded +- Introduced DisplayInfoOnLCD Post Processing Script which combines DisplayFilenameAndLayerOnLCD with DisplayProgress, contributed by @GregValiant +- Introduced alternative camera navigation similar to FreeCAD Trackpad, contributed by @quarnster + +* MethodX specific improvements +- Enabled Print over Cloud for UltiMaker MethodX and Method XL printers +- Introduced ASA, SR30, and Nylon12-CF profiles for MethodX and Method XL Printers +- Improved the predicted printing time so it's closer to the actual printing time on the MethodX and MethodXL +- Improved the idle nozzle temperature for dual extrusion printing on MethodX and MethodXL +- Resolved a crash for the Method printer when navigating to the Monitor tab +- Improved the way that the fanspeeds were listed and controlled for MethodX and MethodXL printers +- Updated Raft settings for UltiMaker MethodX and MethodXL +- Enabled Monotonic Raft Surface to improve adhesion +- Increased the Minimum Retract Distance to improve infill pattern wall overlaps + +* Bug fixes: +- Fixed significantly slower slicing for models with a lot of holes +- Fixed a significant amount of crashes that are caused by self intersecting polygons +- Fixed a bug where Align to Buildplate did not work for grouped meshes, resolves https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/14237 +- Fixed a bug where the models in a 3mf file would not load in their saved position, note that this also changes the behavior of the "import models" feature of a 3mf file, for this feature the saved model location will be ignored +- Reduced the amount of floating support in area's near the support overhang angle threshold +- Fixed a bug with the Initial Extruder Number in the start gcode, resolves https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/17501 +- Fixed a bug where Z could be negative if Remove Empty Layers was enabled, resolves https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/15975 +- Fixed tree support-related crashes if there are no overhangs, contributed by @thomasrahm +- Pressing the Esc key now doesn't exiting full screen mode, contributed by @Sophist-UK, resolves https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/7499 +- Improved the OAuth protocol to improve signing in with plug-ins, contributed by @wawanbreton +- Fixed some slicing crashes with tree support, contributed by @ThomasRahm +- Fixed available height when adding modifier mesh in One at a Time printing, contributed by @fieldofView resolves https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/16566 +- Improved behavior for loading 3mfs by giving the models original names, contributed by @pietchaki, resolves https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/12089 +- Added an error so LimitXYAccelJerk doesn't run unless Accel Control is enabled in Cura, contributed by @Gregvaliant +- Some helpful code cleanup contributed by @dmitrygribenchuk + +* Printer definitions, profiles and materials: +- Introduced high-speed profiles for the layer heights <0.15mm for Ultimaker PLA, T-PLA, ABS and PETG. +- Updated Initial Layer Speed settings for UltiMaker S3, and UltiMaker S5 +- Updated the Shrinkage Factor for PET CF to improve dimensional accuracy +- Renamed UltiMaker PP Transparent to UltiMaker PP Natural +- Increased part strengths of high speed modes by compensating for slip in high flow rates +- Improved self-support settings for UltiMaker Materials +- Improved adhesion settings for UltiMaker ABS +-
