Creality Print to Cura

Yes, but Cura holds less. It prints one plate and has no volumes, layer ranges or per-triangle paint, so Convert drops those and names most of them in the Notes table.

What happens to my plates?

Cura prints one plate. The picked plate, or the first, sits on the bed. The rest park beside it, and nothing is removed: Plate N / off the bed / Cura prints one plate. Drag them onto the bed.

Do filaments carry over?

Each filament slot becomes one extruder train, up to the printer definition's machine_extruder_count. Past that, filaments merge by material, then colour.

What does Cura drop?

  • Modifiers and negative volumes: N volumes dropped, with object names behind the expander.
  • Layer ranges: Layer range / not carried / Cura has no per-height settings.
  • Colour paint: one row, Paint / N painted triangles / not carried.
  • Support and seam paint: the bytes ride along, Cura ignores them, and no row says so.
  • Object settings: Object settings / N objects / dropped.
  • Part settings: dropped, and no row says so.

Shared losses are in what a conversion cannot carry.

Which Cura settings will not come from my file?

Keys with no Creality Print counterpart take the printer definition's value. One is bridge_fan_speed, which opens at 100 %.

Is it the same going back?
