But I guess after 30 secs it will still go away automatically? :(

Simplify3D is Great, :-P
I got it earlier this week and have been experimenting a little, it defiantly controls the printer better the prints are more refined and detailed, wish I had got it long ago, if anybody is thinking about it go get it 8-)

I'd prefer it require a click, just like the notification of a new version of Cura.

I'm printing a lot of larger pieces for my BB-8 project, which requires a lot of rotating to make it fit the build plate. Usually Cura can auto-fit objects but these panels are tricky.

It should only auto scale if its ~2x or more to big. That should also fix quite a few of the issues you guys have.

Just installed!

Is there a way to add entries to the Material list? I'd love to add a "PLA - Colorfabb" and a "PLA - Matterhacker Pro" since each print differently (temps, etc)

Yes.
I have it already turned off, but just as the first incarnation of this feature...having it still silently go away will come back and haunt you, again and again ;)
