UltiMaker Cura 5.10.1$$$The new UltiMaker S6 is here$$$Print with the new UltiMaker S6 in Cura from day 1. The UltiMaker S6 is the newest addition to the S series of UltiMaker printers that carries forward the award-winning legacy of the S5; now supercharged with innovations like the UltiMaker Cheetah for up to 4x productivity. Learn more about this printer here.$$$$$$Other improvements:$$$Introduced Visual Intent profiles for PLA and Tough PLA for the UltiMaker S8$$$Introduced High-Speed Intents for ABSR for Method X and Method XL$$$Bug fixes:$$$Updated UltiMaker S8 profiles to significantly improve the quality of PC; CPE; CPE+; PETG; support structures; and dual extrusion prints$$$Support brims no longer listen to the Brim Distance setting; so the brims will always be attached to the support$$$Fixed a bug affecting multi-extruder printers where the initial temperature was not set correctly at the start of a print if all features used an extruder other than T0

New features and improvements:$$$The UltiMaker S8 was just announced and is now supported in Cura. The S8 is the newest professional desktop printer in the S series; and it achieves up to 4x the speed of its predecessor while also improving print quality. That is possible thanks to the new UltiMaker Cheetah motion planner and new high flow cores; all of which will be usable at launch with Cura! The introduction of this printer comes with a new Marlin-like Gcode flavor called Cheetah. Learn more about this printer here$$$$$$$$$Support for the 3D SpaceMouse by 3Dconnexion. Commonly used in CAD and 3D design software; a 3D mouse makes working with 3D models more precise and efficient. The SpaceMouse; along with the CadMouse; are a perfect fit for Cura and should help make your 3D printing workflows more efficient; especially when switching between Cura and CAD or design software.
