This doesn't work on MacOS (10.10.5) this combination shows all my open windows next to each other.

Whoops. Added it to the list. Ctrl + up / down is the only way to step through them at the moment.

Well, that's bad and we should feel bad ;)

nallath, so it's better to reply here :)

I have some issues with the settings. When I selected UMO for a new machine and then finished the wizard (I select either HBK or HB self supplied) I don't see the HB Temperature in the settings. I tried to enable / disable / restart and so on... did not work, I never see the Heated Bed temperature in the material settings. Bug?
It works if I create a new UMO+.
btw: I deleted the cura settings completly in appdata so cura could restart from scratch. tried again, same behaviour. In the exported gcode, the bed will be set to target temperature, so it is "gui" only, that is not working.

Another issue, when I load an stl, rotate it twice, first y 90 then x -90, and switch to layer view (without changing anything else), the roatation is not reflected, only AFTER I change something (for instance temp) it does slice it again and the transformation is applied. This only happens if I load an object after a fesh cura start. Not if I reset the transformation, position. Nor re-loading the object while cura is running.

When switching between multiple printers hangs slicing, and you have to restart Cura. Also on my computer Сura did not close completely: window close, but program hung in memory, and had to kill manually.

nallath, I guess you are reffering to ivan.akapulko's post, not to mine?

Where do I find the logs? They are not in the program folder.

@Nallath, I'm not a power user, but always interested in trying out new things to provide testing/feedback :) If you need more people, hook me up ;)

I found a way to scroll through the layer view!

(Mac) click in the layer number slider box and use the up or down arrow...

it is quit messy, not following the universal rules of key behavior.......

using 'tab' switches between
rotating: just left/right or up/down, no other key necessary.
scrolling layer height: only up/down, no other key necessary.

confusing....

New build is up. Ton of fixes including;
* Cura launch failure on WIN32 systems
* Slicing should stop when there are no printable objects.
* UM 2 Go & UMO now have brim enabled by default
* Switching machines no longer causes OpenGL to crash
* Changing infill thickness no longer causes crash
* Empty print name in lower right corner is now always adjustable (even when name is empty)
* Grey out settings that are not machine related.
* Improved Readability 'print time' & 'dimensions'
* Moved objects can no longer overlap
* Eject SD card should work correctly now(fixed for Mac. Windows still gives an error, but is correctly unmounted)
* Typing a 'dot' in an input field should no longer remove the dot
