3D Printing Utility

[ercox]

I can't send my parts to my 3D printer Fusion is now telling my I have to go to the manufacturing environment, Why?

@ercox Can you please confirm if you are on 2.0.20460? We addressed this issue in the latest version.

Are you seeing this? In which case you need to manually select to "print utility". I will say that I now need to manually select 3d print utility every time I open a fusion project, which was not the case before and is frustrating and a time waste. I hope there is a default setting for this somewhere that I just need to find and set, as having to manually select print utility each time a project is opened for the first time in a session this occurs.

It is behaving as described.  I can use it now just needed to select "Use Print Utility"

I'm seeing the same thing except it's not exporting to Orca. Select print to utility, send it, Orca opens, but is empty. Tried STL and OBJ for save to utility.

As a workaround I am exporting to a local folder and importing to Orca.

So somehow Fusion made saving to your 3d printer even worse. Instead of 3 clicks (Instead of one clicksaving your last export option and just doing it), now it's like 7 clicks.

The update did solve the problem, but you still need to change it every time to "print utility". It would be fantastic if you could just have it send to print utility every time (as a preference) and also if you could just use a drop down to pick the slicer you are going to use. 80% of the time it's going to my Big Boi, but the rest of the time it might go to one of 3 smalls.
