Yes, I meant "startpoint". I made that response form my mobile and my auto correct is horrible.

Try setting the standpoint for each layer to random. This will hopefully I spread the seam over random points instead of having it all in the same spot. Efectually making it disappear.

Try a really small file to start with to see if that work within a couple minutes. CodeX takes a REALLY long time to process jobs... Like easily over an hour on larger jobs.

Ok, so the extruder will still go to the cleaning bay and clean the head each tool change?

With your new profiles, how do you handle tool changes? The tool change script is now blank.

I raised this with tech support and it looks like they were able to reproduce this. This is being send to development to look at. At the very least the hope is to have a progress bar added instead of "Not Responding" for minutes up to several hours, depending on the size of the job.

Thanks for your help.

I just tried changing all instances of [current_Z_position] to [current_position_Z] and it does the same thing. The placeholder is not being converted to the Z position.

So I have a CubePro Trio with the following in the Tool Change Script. When the Final .gcode is created, everywhere that [current_Z_position] apears, it is not being converted to the z position. The string [current_Z_position] remains in the gcode. Is there a trick to getting Simplify 3D to actually...
