- Infill pattern: from triangles to lines => less strong but better visual appearance on large horizontal surfaces - Infill before walls: from true to false => prevent infill push out walls and show artefacts - skin_monotonic:from false to true => low reduction in print time vs large quality increase Note: this switch also sets: retraction_combing from 'all' to 'noskin' The 'noskin' options prevents scarring in top surfaces and gloss streaking in large horizontal surfaces See: CURA-7976 for details - wall_material_flow: from 100% to 90% => reduces line width variations due to overextrusion in walls. Less gloss streaking and more uniform horizontal walls - top_bottom_pattern: from lines to zigzag => prevent the short jerky travel moves of the lines pattern around the walls. Results in a nicer top surface - meshfix_maximum_resolution from (speed_wall_0 + speed_wall_x) / 60 to (speed_wall_0 + speed_wall_x) / 150 => reduce visibility of line segments due to rounding. This will create a higher change of a buffer underrun = surface blobs |

Cura
Ultimaker Cura is a state-of-the-art slicer application to prepare your 3D models for printing with a 3D printer. With hundreds of settings and hundreds of community-managed print profiles, Ultimaker Cura is sure to lead your next project to a success.
Logging Issues
For crashes and similar issues, please attach the following information:
- (On Windows) The log as produced by dxdiag (start -> run -> dxdiag -> save output)
- The Cura GUI log file, located at
%APPDATA%\cura\<Cura version>\cura.log(Windows), or usuallyC:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\cura\<Cura version>\cura.log$HOME/Library/Application Support/cura/<Cura version>/cura.log(OSX)$HOME/.local/share/cura/<Cura version>/cura.log(Ubuntu/Linux)
If the Cura user interface still starts, you can also reach this directory from the application menu in Help -> Show settings folder
For additional support, you could also ask in the #cura channel on libera.chat. For help with development, there is also the #cura-dev channel.
Dependencies
- Uranium Cura is built on top of the Uranium framework.
- CuraEngine This will be needed at runtime to perform the actual slicing.
- fdm_materials Required to load a printer that has swappable material profiles.
- PySerial Only required for USB printing support.
- python-zeroconf Only required to detect mDNS-enabled printers.
For a list of required Python packages, with their recommended version, see requirements.txt.
This list is not exhaustive at the moment, please check the links in the next section for more details.
Build scripts
Please check out cura-build for detailed building instructions.
If you want to build the entire environment from scratch before building Cura as well, cura-build-environment might be a starting point before cura-build. (Again, see cura-build for more details.)
