Moving from Slic3r to Cura 3.1 its not clear to me how materials and profiles interact. Do the material values, extruder temp for example, over-ride the temps in the profile, or vice versa?
My setting for each filament brand/color/type are different each model requires different profile settings. I’m accumulating quite a few of each. I forget to change the material cfg AND the profile when I change filaments. So I disabled ‘materials view’ and use just profiles. This has a number of drawbacks. For example, all my parts are in yellow which makes them hard to see.
Slic3r’s 3 separate configurations: printer, print, and filament is less confusing when switching material and models.
What am I missing?
