Make support render transparently
This way you can still sort of see what is being supported under there. Handy!

However because the layer view is rendered on top of everything else, the Z buffering is a bit messed up. This makes the support always exactly the transparency value in the theme regardless of how many layers of support are drawn. That's nice, because it makes it so that you can always see through the support.

This doesn't work when the colour scheme of layer view is not set to Line Type. There is no differentiation between support and other things then. Support infill seems to not be used at all by layer view, but I've also made the support interface transparent just like the normal support.

Cura

This is the new, shiny frontend for Cura. Check daid/LegacyCura for the legacy Cura that everyone knows and loves/hates. We re-worked the whole GUI code at Ultimaker, because the old code started to become unmaintainable.

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 usually C:\Users\\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\cura\<Cura version>\cura.log
    • $USER/Library/Application Support/cura/<Cura version>/cura.log (OSX)
    • $USER/.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 FreeNode IRC. For help with development, there is also the #cura-dev channel.
