UltiMaker Cura 5.2.0-beta

Abstract Cloud Printer Type Online cloud printers are now grouped by type. You can slice with the ('abstract') printer type, and afterwards choose a specific printer to print with.

Support For 'Guest'-Type Accounts (In Digital Factory) Users with the ‘Guest’ role can prepare print jobs in Ultimaker Cura and send them to the printers via Digital Factory. These print jobs will not start until they are approved by a user with an 'Member' or 'Admin' role.

More Control Over Initial Layer Flow Three new settings: 'Initial Layer Outer Wall Flow', 'Initial Layer Inner Wall Flow', 'Initial Layer Bottom Flow', to better counteract the 'elephants foot' phenomenon.

Other new features and improvements:

• Auto-remove holes from not completely solid models in vase-mode
• Add setting for 'tree support max diameter'
• Add option to drop-down models to the build-plate individually, contributed by @Piezoid
• Added a preference to make the tray icon optional, contributed by @fieldOfView

Bug fixes:

• Don't ignore bottom pattern when spiralizing
• Don't 'Union All' for 'Merged Meshes Overlap'
• Seam placement was not in the correct corner in some cases
• Cutting meshes with 'surface' set to 'both' cut through the mesh
• Brim lines where ordered the wrong way in some cases
• Random seam is now more random
• Correctly apply combing when spiralizing, contributed by @smartavionics
• Don't spam the user with spurious 'Cura Notification's (Windows only)
• Don't spam the logs with duplicated deprecated warnings, contributed by @Patschke
• Properly update the infill percentage in the top bar after an intent profile switch
• An uninstall could only be done by the original user that installed
• In certain rare situations, layers would be printed multiple times when monotonic fill was on
• Put tree support infill density at 0% by default
• Machine settings: Also save values when closing the window, not just when focus' changed
• Reduce clickable area of settings checkboxes, to prevent mis-clicks
• Fixed a crash when an unnamed tool would be accessed (possibly related to plugin use)
• Fix an issue where a plugin would crash because of a missing dependency
• Many helpful code refactors, contributed by @digitalfrost
• Fix for to-mouse zoom on screens with scaling factor, contributed by @seaniepie
• Models could not be multiplied in one-at-a-time mode

Known critical issues:

• While some small fixes have been made already, the placement of the seam is still more scattered than before 5.0. (Will try to fix in stable.)
• Support is sometimes missing in detailed parts, where previous releases supported them properly (still). (Will probably not be fixed in stable. This is currently slated for 5.3)
• Multiple external monitors on Windows (especially if from the same brand) might be a problem under some circumstances. (Will probably not be fixed in stable.)
