Elegoo Neptune Thumbnails 4.2.0 with Cura 5.6 icon shows only small parts not the whole object #39

Cura 5.6 together with OctoPrint in use. Sometimes the Preview Thumbnails looks totally strange, just a part of the object and not the overview. The only help at this point was to restart Cura again and then the Preview looks like expected.

At this point, i am interested how the Thumbs are created. Sometimes the angel and viewpoint is not the best. is there any option to change the created thumb?

The thumbnail images are created by using a screenshot function provided by Cura. I think if you change your viewing angle in Cura, that could make a difference. Unfortunately the fact that sometimes parts of the image are cropped is not part of my plugin and more like a Cura issue. I hope that expanation helps :)

Strange that the viewiing angle makes no difference, so i don´t know how cura is making the thumbnails. Looks for me that cura is always using the isometric view, equal how the parts are previewed or placed. I never was able to change the thumbs.

That's weird indeed. But as long as the parameters around the thumbnail, that my plugin adds, look fine, I guess it's some kind of Cura bug
