Link Parameters
First of all you must activate the profile you want to edit.
Then use the function Material Settings to analyse the parameters of your profile then delete every parameters set in your current profile which are also present in the active Material settings. This Function gives to the possibility to test the settings parameters you have to remove in your profile to keep back the mechanism inherited from the material definition.
The list of the parameters present in the profile and in your Material Settings will be displayed in this windows :
Then use the button Link Parameters : To link the settings present in the Material definition with your current settings by using the extruderValueFromContainer instruction.
In this case the parameters are defined with the method extruderValueFromContainer in the profile definition (*.cfg files in the quality_changes folder).
material_print_temperature = =extruderValueFromContainer(extruder_nr,"material_print_temperature",4)
4 is in this case the material_container_index.
After this modification the modified parameter should appear as defined with the code extruderValueFromContainer.
Note : With this modification the linked parameter should be immediatly linked with the material values.
The list of the linked parameters will be displayed in a Cura message :
After the modifications, the parameters are still visible in the list but should be listed as Parameters with linked Definition.
If the plugin has found no match between the parameters defined in the Material profile and your custom settings, a message will inform you that no match was found.
In this case refer to the Analysis section of the plugin to display the current settings of your profile. Or use the function Analysis Active material to analyse the settings defined in the material profile.
Please note! It is possible that in Cura settings associated with a Material Profile appear, such as the default printing temperature. But these settings are not necessarily defined in the Material section of the software and can be inherited from the basic definition of the printer. In these conditions the plugin will not be able to remove the necessary settings in your Custom settings. For more information see the Profiles-&-Settings page .
! Be careful, the change is immediate without the possibility to cancel the action ! So it is highly recommended before to make any modification, to duplicate your current Profile before to modify it with this plugin.
