5axes / CustomSupportCylinder

Cura plugin which enables you to add 6 types of custom supports. It was originaly based on the Support Eraser plugin code of Ultimaker BV. But instead of creating a cube "anti_overhang_mesh", this plugin offer you the possibility to define custom sized "support_mesh" elements.

Just wondering if this will get updated for Cura 5.7.0? I was able to install it through GitHub, but it is no longer available on the marketplace

Don't think so . Due to several issues on different plugins they must be checked and modified. But I don't have time for that and as I have Switch to an other slicer it's not a priority for me.

Several of my plugins share the same code and therefore present the same problem. The geometries added as Support / Tab / Text or Support Eraser once the project has been saved and reloaded in Cura are no longer in the right position.

I assume that the problem comes from the same code problem, but I haven't found the solution.

Problem seen on :

The same problem also seems to affect some models of the Calibration Shapes plugin. After reloading a project, the model is no longer at position 0,0,0.

Dang. I use this plugin all the time. My way around the issue is to never close Cura. :D And the fact that you switched to a different slicer is even worse. anyway, I hope you will find a way to make it work. Happy to pitch in with some Patreon dollars to keep it running.
