--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : cura
Product : Fedora 27
Version : 3.2.1
Release : 2.fc27
URL :
https://ultimaker.com/en/products/cura-software
Summary : 3D printer control software
Description :
Cura is a project which aims to be an single software solution for 3D printing.
While it is developed to be used with the Ultimaker 3D printer, it can be used
with other RepRap based designs.
Cura prepares your model for 3D printing. For novices, it makes it easy to get
great results. For experts, there are over 200 settings to adjust to your
needs. As it's open source, our community helps enrich it even more.

Update Information:
# New in 3.2.1: ## Bug fixes * Fixed issues where Cura crashes on startup and
loading profiles * Updated translations * Fixed an issue where the text would
not render properly # New in 3.2.0: ## Tree support Experimental tree-like
support structure that uses ���branches��� to support prints. Branches ���grow��� and
multiply towards the model, with fewer contact points than alternative support
methods. This results in better surface finishes for organic-shaped prints. ##
Adaptive layers Prints with a variable layer thickness which adapts to the angle
of the model���s surfaces. The result is high-quality surface finishes with a
marginally increased print time. This setting can be found under the
experimental category. ## Faster startup Printer definitions are now loaded
when adding a printer, instead of loading all available printers on startup. ##
Backface culling in layer view Doubled frame rate by only rendering visible
surfaces of the model in the layer view, instead of rendering the entire model.
Good for lower spec GPUs as it is less resource-intensive. ## Multi build plate
Experimental feature that creates separate build plates with shared settings in
a single session, eliminating the need to clear the build plate multiple times.
Multiple build plates can be sliced and sent to a printer or printer group in
Cura Connect. This feature must be enabled manually in the preferences ���general���
tab. ## Improved mesh type selection New button in the left toolbar to edit per
model settings, giving the user more control over where to place support.
Objects can be used as meshes, with a drop down list where ���Print as support���,
���Don't overlap support with other models���, ���Modify settings for overlap with
other models���, or ���Modify settings for infill of other models��� can be specified.
Contributed by fieldOfView. ## View optimization Quick camera controls
introduced in version 3.1 have been revised to create more accurate isometric,
front, left, and right views. ## Updated sidebar to QtQuick 2.0 Application
framework updated to increase speed, achieve a better width and style fit, and
gives users dropdown menus that are styled to fit the enabled Ultimaker Cura
theme, instead of the operating system���s theme. ## Hide sidebar The sidebar can
now be hidden/shown by selecting View > Expand/Collapse Sidebar, or with the
hotkey CMD + E (Mac) or CTRL + E (PC and Linux). ## Disable ���Send slice
information��� A shortcut to disable ���Send slice information��� has been added to
the first launch to make it easier for privacy-conscious users to keep slice
information private. ## Start/end gcode script per extruder Variables from both
extruders in the start and end gcode snippets can now be accessed and edited,
creating uniformity between profiles in different slicing environments.
Contributed by fieldOfView. ## OctoPrint plugin added to plugin browser This
plugin enables printers managed with OctoPrint to print via Ultimaker Cura
interface (version 3.2 or later). ## Bugfixes * Fixed a bug where the mirror
tool and center model options when used together would reset the model
transformations * Updated config file path to fix crashes caused by user config
files that are located on remote drives * Updated Arduino drivers to fix
triggering errors during OTA updates in shared environments. This also fixes an
issue when upgrading the firmware of the Ultimaker Original. * Fixed an issue
where arranging small models would fail, due to conflict with small model files
combined with the ���Ensure models are kept apart��� option # New in 3.1.0: ##
Profile added for 0.25 mm print core This new print core gives extra fine line
widths which gives prints extra definition and surface quality. ## Profile
added for Breakaway material New material profile for Breakaway material, a new
dry post processing support material, which can be used for models with flat
surface area overhangs. ## Layer view The existing Layer View has been updated
in order to see a live simulation of all the paths within a layer. ## Quick
camera controls New buttons have been added to the interface that can quickly
reposition the camera view of the buildplate. ## Lock model on platform The
move tool has a new option to lock a selected model to the platform. ## Faster
profile switching speed Duplicating and removing a profile could take Ultimaker
Cura quite some time, it now happens instantly. ## Faster printer selection
Removing a printer from the library is now instant. No more unresponsive
screens. ## Faster processing speed A 5 - 10 % speed increase when calculating
normals, loading models, and slicing. ## Feedrate visualization Feedrate
visualization has been added to the Layer view. Using this gives the user an
idea of the print speeds per model part, allowing for better control over
prints. ## Jogging It allows the printhead to be moved with on-screen controls.
Contributed by fieldOfView. ## Large model loading A new feature has been added
which unloads the layer view when switching to solid mode, speeding Ultimaker
Cura back up without losing your G-code/layer view information. ## Scripts
folder A scripts folder is now available in the Ultimaker Cura configuration
folder. This folder can be loaded with post processing plugins scripts, which
will automatically show in Ultimaker Cura. Contributed by fieldOfView. ##
Optimized workflow for crash reporting Crash reports are automatically generated
and allow the user, in case of a crash, to easily send their report with a
description to developers. ## Floating models enabled In previous releases,
models were dropped to the build plate when support was disabled. Models now
float when the setting is enabled (even if creates an impossible-to-print
situation). This can be used to stack separate models on top of each other. ##
Slicing tolerance A new setting that affects the intersect point to influence
the dimensional accuracy for diagonal surfaces. The user can select the
behaviour: ���Inclusive��� makes gaps narrower, ���Exclusive��� makes gaps wider, and
���Middle��� is the fastest to process. This can be used to create better tolerances
for printed screw holes. Contributed by BagelOrb. ## Optimized zig zag patterns
Zig zag patterns now print more consistently. Lines now have a 5 micron
tolerance in which they are printed any way, resulting in longer connected
lines. Contributed by smartavionics. ## Aligned z-seam inner wall moves Inner
wall travel moves are aligned with the z-seam. This reduces the number of travel
moves and reduces the chance of more unwanted seams. ## Relative positioning of
infill patterns Infill patterns are now positioned relative to the center of
loaded models and an offset can be applied to control the infill more precisely
and adjust it to preference or strength. Contributed by smartavionics. ## Line
resolution Enables the user to specify the minimum allowed distance value
between two points in G-code to create lower or higher resolution polygons. ##
Custom mode changes If profile settings have been modified in recommended mode
under custom mode, a reset icon will appear to notify the user. Click the icon
to show the changes that have been made, and revert back to the default profile
settings. ## Bugfixes * Fix for layer numbers being displayed incorrectly when
switching between solid and layer mode * Fix for Ultimaker Cura engine crashes
on certain models * Fix for displaying visible settings * Fix for importing
legacy .ini files * Prevent skipping user agreement dialog by pressing escape
