Issues With v2.1.1

[joesoap583]

Overall I'm a happy camper with v2.1.1 - all of the significant issues reported with v2.1 appear to have been resolved.

ISSUE 1:
However when bringing temperatures up to speed, v2.1.1 does not hold nozzle temperature whilst the HBP heats up UNLESS the nozzle temperature is already at the set point. That means that if you nozzle was currently at 200 degrees (required 230 degrees), that temperature is allowed to drop whilst the HBP comes up.

Previously the nozzle temperatures were put on waiting status, held wherever they were whilst the HBP came up.

This situation slows down printing, because by the time the HBP comes up the nozzles have dropped right away.

ISSUE 2:
S3D does not "remember" the settings for the model. If you double-click the item in the top left listbox and define a new multiplier, that value is not saved if you exit and restart S3D - although S3D does automatically reload the last model you were working on.

I don't know if this was an issue with previous versions.

I can't speak on issue #1 since I usually print through SD Card, but for Issue #2 Simplify3D didn't do that in previous versions either. You can save a factory file though and that should accomplish what your looking for as far as saving the models, their orientations and scale.

I have only recently started using #2 to define the scaling (when I remember!), so wasn't sure if it was carried over from v2.1. It seems to be a shame that those parameters don't get auto-saved when everything else seems to be remembered. If you define the model name on that same dialog that IS remembered and recalled when S3D next starts up. I would therefore venture to suggest that that remembering behaviour should be made consistent for everything on that dialog.

Defining a factory file is obviously a lot more work and I tend not to bother (my prints are frequent and somewhat random in nature).

I saved the design as a factory file, and when S3D is closed, restarted and the factory file reloaded the scaling values are NOT saved - they revert to 1.0. Therefore saving as a factory file does not save the scaling values. This I think has to be treated as a bug.
