  157. * Support For 'Guest'-Type Accounts (In Digital Factory)
  158. Users with the ‘Guest’ role can prepare print jobs in Ultimaker Cura and send them to the printers via Digital Factory. These print jobs will not start until they are approved by a user with an 'Member' or 'Admin' role.
  159. * More Control Over Initial Layer Flow

  218. - <a href="https://support.ultimaker.com/hc/en-us/articles/6103470096028">Support is sometimes missing in detailed parts</a>, where previous releases supported them properly (still). (Will probably not be fixed in stable. This is currently slated for 5.3)
  219. - Multiple external monitors on Windows (especially if from the same brand) <a href="https://support.ultimaker.com/hc/en-us/articles/6103674944156">might be a problem under some circumstances</a>. (Will probably not be fixed in stable.)
  220. * Does Cura (not) work on your OS (version)? See <a href="https://support.ultimaker.com/hc/en-us/articles/360011889579">this article</a> for clarification.
  221. [5.1.1]
  222. * New features:
  223. - Added support for the Ultimaker S3 and Ultimaker S5 updated mainbord
  224. <i>MacOS 10.15 is no longer supported. Technically this means Ultimaker will stop testing and developing for such operating systems. However, even though it is no longer supported, there is still a high likelihood the application keeps functioning.</i>
  225. [5.1]
  226. <i>For an overview of the new features in Cura 5.1, please watch <a href="https://youtu.be/7jetjsHLIvk">our video</a>.</i>
  227. * Improved toolpath simplification algorithm
  228. The algorithm that reduces the resolution of the print has been rewritten, providing a more constant resolution to allow for greater precision without causing buffer underruns.
  229. * Added option to alternate wall direction
  230. A new setting causes the direction of printing walls to alternate between layers and adjacent walls, which reduces warping in the print.
  231. * Adjusted combing boundaries to reduce scarring
  232. Travel moves through the inside of the models are adjusted so that they should keep more distance from the model where possible, yet allowing travels through narrow parts without retractions.
  233. * Reduced acceleration and jerk commands for travel moves
  234. We added the option to disable acceleration and jerk commands for travel moves. If disabled, they will take on the acceleration of the printed part of its destination. This greatly reduces file size and buffer underruns.
  235. * Project files know which packages they require
  236. Newly created project files will now store which packages they require from the Ultimaker Marketplace. If a project needs a material from there, the user will be prompted to download it.
  237. * Other new features and improvements:
  238. - The interface to select the printing profile in Recommended Mode has been redesigned.
  239. - Implemented multi-threaded slicing for MacOS, to bring it in line with other operating systems, contributed by Piezoid.
  240. - Cura now links toolpaths to project files in the Digital Factory.
  241. - Improved performance of loading STL files on Linux.
  242. - Packages from the Marketplace can now contain intent profiles.
  243. - The application now makes heavy use of Conan to make it easier and faster to build releases of Cura.
  244. - Start and end g-code can now refer to the currently active profile with replacement keys.
