x3g file differs from gcode export

[djmuhlestein]

I'm testing out Mattercontrol 1.1.3 (On OSX) with a Flashforge CreatorX.
I added my custom gcode that starts the extruders/temperatures etc. If I export the file as gcode, I see my custom gode at the start of the file.

You can see I'm heating up the bed first, then waiting and then heating up the extruder. Now if I run gpx manually on this file:

gpx -m r1d -g test.gcode test.x3g

Then try to print the resulting test.x3g, I see the start routine run as expected.

If instead, I export as x3g from the export screen, the extruders move to the waiting postion but immediately the extruder starts heating up and the bed temperature is turned off.

So somehow the x3g generation isn't quite the same as the gcode generation (to it's detriment.) Thanks for looking.

This has been resolved with our new exporter.
