  I just wanted to say that they have fixed my purge issue, and I am waiting for the Alpha to come out to test it. Can't wait, as the rest I have seen has fixed everything I had problems with in the previous versions. Here is hoping!

  I have a Robo. Where did the option for Automatic Print Leveling go?You are probably getting confused about the different kinds of print leveling that are available. Your Robo has hardware leveling which allows it to probe the height of the bed before each print. Other printers don't have this feature, so for them MatterControl has the option to use automatic software leveling. This is where you measure the height of 3 points on the bed using the piece of paper. If you try to use both types of leveling at once, they will conflict with each other and cause problems. This is why the option for software leveling is now hidden if you have a Robo or any other type of printer with a probe. For more information on the various types of leveling, and how to configure them, look at our article on Automatic Print Leveling.

  @larsbrubaker It is all ok. I am no longer chained to Mattercontrol since I went to Duet and no longer need MC to level my bed. But if you are making engineering parts using MC/Pulse with usb connection, it has to be on Linux or you will get interrupts on Windows, even if you unplug from the internet. I use MatterControl because it is superior to the other slicers (I have most of them), except for when you are making a large print in Nylon, then Simplify is better because of multiple skirt layers.

  Alternatively, the printers also have a wifi card, that enable me to connect fine with an IP and with port I can specify (currently 8686), but even in MC network mode, it reports it can't open the port.

  @timtitan Ok, try this: Open Administration > Driver manager. Select xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (open-sorce) version 1:1.0.16-1. Reboot. Mattercontrol should now work in Mint 20. Also, you may wish to set your anti-analyzing setting in Mattercontrol from 8 to 0. usr/lib/mattercontrol/appsettings.json You will need to open the folder with root permissions (right click, open as root, enter password). Open in Xed terminal program, change FSAA from 8 to 0. Log out and back in. "FSAASamples": 0 MatterControl Linux Support Development/Running on Linux MatterControl - Github

  @tinken Yes I understand how subtract works, I know you are trying to help. However it appears that a subbtracted flattend part got corrupted. I got around it by using Combine. Once I combined the part that was erroneously subtracting, subtract worked corectly.

  Salut. Il existe un livre disponible sur Amazon pour Mattercontrol, mais il est obsolète. Si vous recherchez ceci, vous pouvez récupérer une copie utilisée. Le livre couvre beaucoup de choses que vous ne trouverez pas dans la base de connaissances en ligne. Hello. There is a book available on Amazon for Mattercontrol, but it is out of date. If you search for this, you can pick up a used copy. The book covers many things you will not find in the online knowledge base.

  This might seem a bit complicated but it will accomplish what you are asking. Add your part to the bed Add a measure tools to the bed (the yellow arrows in the tool bar) Measure the inside of your part that you want to change Group the measure tool and your part together Right click and add a Modify -> Transform -> Scale to the group Switch to Percentage Turn off Lock Proportions Adjust the Width and Depth by the same percentage to get the size you want The size will show on the measure tools All this will be easier in the future. The measure tool will automatically stay with your part and the scale tool is going to get a lock proportions for xy (as this questions shows the need). Thanks.

  If you submit an issue to support with the profile and the things you are trying to print, we'll be happy to look into it. Here is how to export the profile. And the best way to share the print is to save it to your cloud library and then send a share code in the support ticket. You can also add all the same stuff to GitHub if that is easier for you.

  You can: Insert a cylinder Right click it Select Modify Select Printing Select Convert to Wipe Tower With this method you can define both the shape and the position of the wipe tower. The tower will stop printing as soon as no more transition are required and the top of the shape will continue to be projected up as long as there is a need for more tower (even if the original shape is short). Hope that helps

  If you had an old build you may need to remove it before you can install the new one. Don't know why, but we have seen it happen.

  There is the measurement tool in the sidebar. If your icons are in big mode it won't show. It is also accessible in library.
