                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good evening guys,</p><p>I recently switched over vom Cura to PrusaSlicer and I am really liking the layout, the options and all the possibilities it offers.<br />At the moment I am trying to get color switches working at certain layer height. I use the option to add a Color Change by right clicking and adding an M600 via the layer pane.</p><p>In Marlin 2.0 I configured the respective code snippet in configuration_adv.h as follows:</p><div><pre>#define ADVANCED_PAUSE_FEATURE<br /><br />#if ENABLED(ADVANCED_PAUSE_FEATURE)<br /><br />  #define PAUSE_PARK_RETRACT_FEEDRATE         60  // (mm/s) Initial retract feedrate.<br /><br />  #define PAUSE_PARK_RETRACT_LENGTH            3  // (mm) Initial retract.<br /><br />                                                  // This short retract is done immediately, before parking the nozzle.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_CHANGE_UNLOAD_FEEDRATE     20  // (mm/s) Unload filament feedrate. This can be pretty fast.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_CHANGE_UNLOAD_ACCEL        25  // (mm/s^2) Lower acceleration may allow a faster feedrate.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_CHANGE_UNLOAD_LENGTH        0  // (mm) The length of filament for a complete unload.<br /><br />                                                  //   For Bowden, the full length of the tube and nozzle.<br /><br />                                                  //   For direct drive, the full length of the nozzle.<br /><br />                                                  //   Set to 0 for manual unloading.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_CHANGE_SLOW_LOAD_FEEDRATE   5  // (mm/s) Slow move when starting load.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_CHANGE_SLOW_LOAD_LENGTH     0  // (mm) Slow length, to allow time to insert material.<br /><br />                                                  // 0 to disable start loading and skip to fast load only<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_CHANGE_FAST_LOAD_FEEDRATE  10  // (mm/s) Load filament feedrate. This can be pretty fast.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_CHANGE_FAST_LOAD_ACCEL     25  // (mm/s^2) Lower acceleration may allow a faster feedrate.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_CHANGE_FAST_LOAD_LENGTH     0 // (mm) Load length of filament, from extruder gear to nozzle.<br /><br />                                                  //   For Bowden, the full length of the tube and nozzle.<br /><br />                                                  //   For direct drive, the full length of the nozzle.<br /><br />  #define ADVANCED_PAUSE_CONTINUOUS_PURGE         // Purge continuously up to the purge length until interrupted.<br /><br />  #define ADVANCED_PAUSE_PURGE_FEEDRATE       4   // (mm/s) Extrude feedrate (after loading). Should be slower than load feedrate.<br /><br />  #define ADVANCED_PAUSE_PURGE_LENGTH         0   // (mm) Length to extrude after loading.<br /><br />                                                  //   Set to 0 for manual extrusion.<br /><br />                                                  //   Filament can be extruded repeatedly from the Filament Change menu<br /><br />                                                  //   until extrusion is consistent, and to purge old filament.<br /><br />  #define ADVANCED_PAUSE_RESUME_PRIME          3  // (mm) Extra distance to prime nozzle after returning from park.<br /><br />  //#define ADVANCED_PAUSE_FANS_PAUSE             // Turn off print-cooling fans while the machine is paused.<br /><br />                                                  // Filament Unload does a Retract, Delay, and Purge first:<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_UNLOAD_PURGE_RETRACT       13  // (mm) Unload initial retract length.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_UNLOAD_PURGE_DELAY       5000  // (ms) Delay for the filament to cool after retract.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_UNLOAD_PURGE_LENGTH         8  // (mm) An unretract is done, then this length is purged.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_UNLOAD_PURGE_FEEDRATE      25  // (mm/s) feedrate to purge before unload<br /><br />  #define PAUSE_PARK_NOZZLE_TIMEOUT           45  // (seconds) Time limit before the nozzle is turned off for safety.<br /><br />  #define FILAMENT_CHANGE_ALERT_BEEPS          0  // Number of alert beeps to play when a response is needed.<br /><br />  #define PAUSE_PARK_NO_STEPPER_TIMEOUT           // Enable for XYZ steppers to stay powered on during filament change.<br /><br />  #define PARK_HEAD_ON_PAUSE                      // Park the nozzle during pause and filament change.<br /><br />  //#define HOME_BEFORE_FILAMENT_CHANGE           // If needed, home before parking for filament change<br /><br />  //#define FILAMENT_LOAD_UNLOAD_GCODES           // Add M701/M702 Load/Unload G-codes, plus Load/Unload in the LCD Prepare menu.<br /><br />  //#define FILAMENT_UNLOAD_ALL_EXTRUDERS         // Allow M702 to unload all extruders above a minimum target temp (as set by M302)<br /><br />#endif</pre><p>I set values of 0 where needed in order to be able to do the switch manually.</p><p>Here is the problem now:<br />whenever the extruder is in its park position (so the basic functionality is there already :)) it is locked. So the extruder stepper is not turned off. Therefore a manual switch is not possible.</p><p>Anyone got an idea on where I have gone wrong?</p><p>Thank you all in advance :)</p></div>]]></content:encoded>
