[4.6.0]
THANK YOU to all Ultimaker Cura users helping in the fight against COVID-19 – with 3D printing, volunteering, or just by staying home. Want to get involved? Find out more at https://ultimaker.com/in/cura/covid-19
* New Intent profiles.
In version 4.4 we introduced Intent profiles for the Ultimaker S3 and Ultimaker S5 which allow you to start prints at the click of a button without a lot of configuration steps. Due to popular demand, version 4.6 expands the range of Engineering Intent profiles to include more of the Ultimaker material portfolio: PC, Nylon, CPE, and CPE+. These work with 0.4 print cores.
* Show active post processing scripts.
fieldOfview has contributed an ease of use improvement to the post processing plugin. The number of enabled post processing scripts will now display as a badge notification over the post processing scripts icon. A tooltip gives extra information about which scripts are enabled for quick and easy inspection, so there's no need to open the post processing dialog.
* Hole Horizontal Expansion.
smartavionics has contributed a new setting that applies an offset to all holes on each layer, allowing you to manually enlarge or contract holes to compensate for horizontal expansion.
* Per-model settings.
The "Infill only" checkbox has been changed to a dropdown selection: “Infill mesh only” or “Cutting mesh”.
* Transparent support rendering.
In preview mode with ‘Line type’ selected, support material will render with transparency so you can easily see what’s being supported.
* No stair stepping for PVA profiles.
Stair stepping is intended to reduce the adhesion between support and the model, where the support rests on the model, and to reduce scarring. As PVA doesn't suffer from scarring or adhesion issues due to its water-solubility, this value has been set to 0 for PVA profiles. A known issue with the stair stepping algorithm causes support to disappear sometimes, so doing this reduces the chance of that happening when PVA is used.
* Separators in extensions menu.
fieldOfview has contributed a method for plugin authors to add separators between menu items in the “Extensions” submenu. The method is backwards-compatible so changes don’t have to be made in Cura and Uranium together.
* Ultimaker account sign in prompt.
Added clearer text to the sign in popup and first use flow to highlight the benefits of using an Ultimaker account with Cura.
* Updated installer.
Small fixes have been made to the installer. To keep up with the times, we’ve also updated the images to display an Ultimaker S3 instead of an Ultimaker 3.
* Infill mesh ordering.
When you have three objects overlapping each other and you set two of them to "Modify settings for infill of other models", then the setting "Infill Mesh Order" determines which of the two infill meshes gets priority where they overlap. This was broken for cutting meshes, so BagelOrb contributed a fix.
* Backups storage size.
We’ve put a hard limit on backup file size in this release to prevent other files being stored there.
* 3MF gcode comments removed.
Fixed a bug where comments were removed from Start/End G-codes when opening from a 3MF.
* Print monitor preheat fields.
Values in the print monitor preheat fields were broken in previous versions, they have now been fixed by fieldOfview.
* Stepper motor disarming during pause at height.
Some printers (like the Ultimaker S5) have a very heavy build platform. When the pause at height script was enabled, it would disarm the Z stepper motor at pause height. The weight of the build platform would cause the Z axis to lower by gravity and lose the Z position. ilyko96 has contributed a fix to the pause at height script so that the Z stepper motor now remains armed during a pause, locking the build plate in position.
* Flying Bear printers.
oducceu has contributed a machine definition for the Flying Bear Ghost 4S Printer.
* Magicfirm printers.
jeffkyjin has contributed machine definitions for MBot Grid II+, MBot Grid II+ (dual), MBot Grid IV+ and MBot Grid IV+ (dual).
* HMS434.
Updates to the HMS434 machine definition have been contributed by maukcc.
* FabX Pro.
hussainsail2002 has contributed machine definitions for FabX Pro and print profiles for REDD materials.
* Disclaimer: Third-party machine definitions are accepted as contributed, and are not tested or maintained in any way by the Cura development team.
[4.5.0]
* Ultimaker Marketplace sync.
Plugins and print profiles downloaded from the Ultimaker Marketplace will now become associated with your Ultimaker account when logged in. If changes are detected in your installation after logging in, an option to sync a list of available packages will become available. You can also add packages to your installation using the web-based Ultimaker Marketplace.
