Changing Printer Profiles

What a great program. I have had it less than a week and now I wonder how I ever got along with out it.
I have 2 printers, a Kossel Mini and another cartesian type not listed. I can change back the the Mini easy enough, but what would be the best way save and switch to the other printer profile. I know I can save a process profile and import, but that does not change to the rectangular printing bed in the display area. Thanks.

Once you have a profile configured how you want it, click Export to save the .fff file to your hard drive. Do the same for your other machine and its profile. Now when you want to switch between them, they will both be in the "Select Profile" drop down list. Makes it really easy :D

I think you have to ensure the "update machine settings" checkbox is clicked, on that one tab, in that place! You know the one! Where you make the slicing process. :D

Yes, good point. All of their stock profiles have that enabled, so I was just assuming :D

Yes, that was it. It was checked for the Kossel Mini, but not for the phoenix profile.

Thanks for your help.
