I’ve already switch from Cura to PrusaSlicer to SuperSlicer and get back to PrusaSlicer (organic support is a must). With all the bambu hype, I can’t find a comparison beetween PrusaSlicer and OrcaSlicer (pros and cons). Feel free to comment !

    My only complaint about PrusaSlicer is that I regularly change settings in all three tabs for a change in filaments. What is “normal” for a balance in quality and speed differs between PLA and ASA, so I have to make profiles for “Normal ASA” and “Normal PLA”. If I change nozzle sizes, it saves as a new printer, so I have “CR-10 0.4mm”, “CR-10 0.6mm”, etc. The optimal extrusion width changes with nozzle size, but extrusion width is a setting on the print setting, not the printer setting.

    The point being, typically I have to change settings under all three tabs (print, filament, printer) for a change in filament. I know there’s a retraction override tab on the filament, but I don’t want two areas with retraction settings stored.

    Minor note: it’s a little annoying to swap to a new nozzle, create a new printer setting, and lose all filament settings. It’s kind of a pain to find the PLA normal setting for 0.6mm nozzle and figure out how to copy it as a basis for the “CR-10 0.8mm” printer setting.
