Pronterface Issue

Hi I am having an issue with Pronterface after the Version 1.9.2 update PE and with Version 2.0.0 PE.
when I try and open a print file for MM (.gcode) it doesn't load anything or show a preview like it normally does.
I tried a clean install and that didn't fix it either.

I noticed it works if I switch to "Original Prusa i3 MK2" for my printer on SLic3r
but on for "Original Prusa i3 MK2 MM" or "Original Prusa i3 MK2 MM Single Mode" either.

does anyone know of something I can try to fix this?

Thanks, Adam

Re: Pronterface Issue

I have this issue (or similar) when the gcode includes "T?" (ask the user to select the extruder).
When I change this to T0, T1, T2 or T3... Pronterface draws it on screen and extrude correctly.

Saludos,

Re: Pronterface Issue

I have the same problem. Is there a way to report a bug to Prusa about this? We shouldn't have to hand edit gcode files.

In my case I switched to the MK2 MM (not single material MM), set num extruders to 1, and pronterface was able to load it OK.

Version: 2.1.4
Slic3r: 1.39.1
Pronterface: 2014.03.10

RE: Pronterface Issue

Keep in mind that setting the MM profile to have only 1 extruder will default to using extruder 1. This is a great solution but just remember to edit GCODE to set to T(0-3) depending on what extruder you want to use.
