As the title states. I have profile issues with almost every update. This is extremely frustrating. I have created and tuned a profile for Siraya Tech PPA-CF for one of my printers and Orca is simply not saving it when it is behaving as if it does. I cannot locate the json on the machine anywhere. Can someone advise/ explain why this is such an issue at every update???
#Filament Profile Not Saving
thorn urchin
I created a process for this filament at the same time and it successfully saves that.
Scratch that, I have located the json, Its actually duplicated as many times as Ive tried to save it. Why does it not show up?
thorn urchin
If I close the program and relaunch this profile will disappear from the menu but will be present in the folder. I am pulling my hair out here. Its a hassle to have to load a 3mf with this filament profile every time i want to use it. What is going on with profiles lately????????
Same issue on 2.3.1 Stable. Profile does not show up in list, but the file is present in the folder.

I think that folder stores latest items only. Are you sure you're actually saving that process as user preset and not inside the project? If so, you need the parent process it depends on, or it it will never show up

Im hitting the save button, editing the name, and telling it to save it as a user preset. I dont know of another way to do it.

as said, add its parent first or remove the inherritance, or it won't show up after being saved

I have the same problem, but with the Snapmaker Orca version. My regular Orca Slicer does show the user presets, but in Snapmaker Orca I have exactly the problem that you described. Already asked the support of Snapmaker.Will revert with their comments.

By the way, which OS are you using ? Windows or Mac ?
thorn urchin
Windows. This issue is still unresolved for me.
Siraya tech provides filament settings via a 3mf file so this profile is being created from that settings inside the 3mf. There is no parent nor do I see anywhere this is an option/displayed/noted.

How?
I appreciate the response but simply telling me to do something that I am obviously not figuring out on my own is super unhelpful.

Exact the same problem with the same filament producer
tiny haven
How?
this is the cause <#1481369603044278446 message>
the Siraya vendor doesn't exist in the current Orca build so it has to rely on its parent it was created from. I know the inherritance system can be annoying but this how it works

I even tried to make an empty new profil, copying the code over editior from one json to another

this won't work as it's not as simple as copying a json

I don't know since I don't know the source myself, you need find out by analysing the file you're trying to import
coral stump
Maybe someone else can help the 3D files and settings can be found here, I don't know anything or even where to look. I am comfortable with some coding but don't know what to look for
You can look under p1s and so on to open the 3mf files and then open them including the settings
tiny haven
that's for bambu studio, not orca

i finally got it, creat a new filament over custom filament, make it based on Generic PPA, then save it, don't make anything special. Open the filament profile folder, open the new file wit editor and copy following line (here it's my line i used, just search for "inherits":) "inherits": "Siraya Tech TPU Air @Bambu Lab P1S 0.4 nozzle" copy this file open the json file you got with saving the file from the 3mf file. search for the "Inherits": line there and replace it with the one you previous generated in my case "inherits": "Siraya Tech TPU Air @Bambu Lab P1S 0.4 nozzle"
than everything is working and you got the profile

seems like the main system profile it depends on is the 0.2 from the X1C. but still, the Siraya filament preset basically doesn't exist. The simplest way to make it universal is to remove the inherritance and any dependency by changing it from "Siraya blablabla" to ""
here, made it universal, just import it as config
thorn urchin
Every time I attempted to remove the inheritance line it just resulted in the json being deleted the next time Orca was launched. Is there some secret formula for making these edits Im overlooking or?
And if the Vendor is the issue why does it not have a problem with this profile which was created on an older version of Orca?
