Re: Retracts too long with 3.0.2?

Has this bug been fixed? If you keep "Relative extrusion distances" checked (which I have to, to avoid overly long retratctions and jams), then you can't pause the print on Astroprint without the extruder trying to immediately extrude a lot of extra filament. In the meanwhile, I guess I just can't pause my prints...?

Re: Retracts too long with 3.0.2?

Good luck getting a reply here... I suggest contacting S3D support directly and letting them know it's a problem for you. The more people that do the more likely they will be to fix it, one would hope.

Re: Retracts too long with 3.0.2?

What solved this problem for me was changing the "Tool change retraction distance" to 0.00 on the Advanced tab. I first tried selecting the "Relative extrusion distances" option, but that didn't help.

I could be wrong, but It appears to me the value in "Tool change retraction distance" is getting added to retracts when "Perform retraction during wipe movement" is enabled, even with a single extruder and no tool change. In any case, changing the "Tool change retraction distance" to 0.00 eliminated the problem for me.

So if you have a single extruder, give that a try as an alternative workaround.

Re: Retracts too long with 3.0.2?

when i set the Tool change retraction distance" to 0.00
i noticed that the Tool change retraction -SPEED- can not set to 0.00
maybe this is a hint for the programmer to solve the retraction too long problem
