Printer Bed Size Not Updating Between Processes

With the new 5.0 update there is a MAJOR issue. For example lets say I have a process for a CR-10 (300x300x400) and an Ender 3 (220x220x250). If I make the CR-10 active I would then assume my preview in the window is the 300x300x400 bed size. Then if I double click on the Ender 3 process in V4 it will change the bed boundary boxes in the preview window to be the 220x220x250 size.

The issue is that with V5 IT DOES NOT UPDATE THE PREVIEW AREA. This is resulting in things being sliced out of bounds of the printer beds on smaller machines and causing print failures. I've uninstalled V5 from our work machines and I hope this can be fixed ASAP. I will be honest, given that it took almost 3 years to get a V5 update I do not have confidence in a patch coming out quickly so if you can give an ETA on this issue that would be appreciated. If its going to take long to resolve then we will just request a refund for the V5 upgrade (we have 4 licenses) and stick with V4 since we know V4 works.

Re: Printer Bed Size Not Updating Between Processes

Yep same issue for me. I have a huge printer and a tiny printer. Not only do the profiles not update print volume size when you change between printers, but even typing different dimensions in doesn't change them. I think the import of V4 profiles is bugged.
