Slic3r-console: saving problem where value might be "yes" or "no"
September 06, 2014 06:56AM
Hi All.
Sorry for my English.
I have problem with slic3r-console.exe on Windows 8. I want to save config file with my params. Problem with values where need "yes" or "no". For example: I want to turn on cooling:
in cmd:
slic3r-console.exe --cooling yes --save config.ini
it works well. In config file value becomes equal 1. But when I want to turn off cooling:
slic3r-console.exe --cooling no --save config.ini
It doesn't work. In config value not changes. Why?
Slic3r version is 1.1.7 stable.

"config.exe"? Was that supposed to be "config.ini"?

Have you successfully saved with other settings changed? Is this specific to "yes/no" options? Is the file being written at all, or is there a chance that it is writing the config.ini to another location?

Yes. Any settings with numeric value.

No. I checked this many times. Other parameters are written succesfully. But parameter described above just leaves no changes.
For example, config contains parameter:
avoid_crossing_perimeters = 0

This command:
slic3r-console.exe --avoid_crossing_perimeters yes --save config.ini
works. Now config.ini contains:
avoid_crossing_perimeters = 1
slic3r-console.exe --avoid_crossing_perimeters no --save config.ini
not works. confused smiley
Config.ini still contains: avoid_crossing_perimeters = 1

With previous versions of Slic3r I found that settings sometimes did not "take" and I had to change them a few times (and sometimes together with other parameters). Try changing the setting as well as other related settings, saving, re-loading and if it has not "taken" change again and re-save. When it saves correctly change back the other settings you changed and re-save (then re-load to check). I sometimes had to fiddle several timers to get a good save.
