Cura
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
This is the new, shiny frontend for Cura. [daid/Cura](https://github.com/daid/Cura.git) is the old legacy Cura that everyone knows and loves/hates.
|
|
|
|
We re-worked the whole GUI code at Ultimaker, because the old code started to become a unmaintainable.
|
|
|
|
Dependencies
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
* [Uranium](https://github.com/Ultimaker/Uranium)
|
|
Cura is built on top of the Uranium framework.
|
|
* [CuraEngine](https://github.com/Ultimaker/CuraEngine)
|
|
This will be needed at runtime to perform the actual slicing.
|
|
* PySerial
|
|
Only required for USB printing support.
|
|
|
|
Configuring Cura
|
|
----------------
|
|
* Link your CuraEngine backend by inserting the following line in home/.config/cura/config.cfg :
|
|
[backend]
|
|
location = /[path_to_the..]/CuraEngine/build/CuraEngine
|
|
|

Making profiles for other printers
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
Use [this](https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/blob/master/resources/settings/ultimaker_original.json) as a template.
|
|
|
|
* Change the machine ID to something unique
|
|
* Change the machine_name to your printer's name
|
|
* If you have a 3D model of your platform you can put it in resources/meshes and put its name under platform
|
|
* Set your machine's dimensions with machine_width, machine_depth, and machine_height
|
|
* If your printer's origin is in the center of the bed, set machine_center_is_zero to true.
|
|
* Set your print head dimensions with the machine_head_shape parameters
|
|
* Set the nozzle offset with machine_nozzle_offset_x_1 and machine_nozzle_offset_y1
|
|
* Set the start and end gcode in machine_start_gcode and machine_end_gcode
|
|
* If your printer has a heated bed, set visible to true under material_bed_temperature
|
|
|
|
Once you are done, put the profile you have made into resources/settings.
