I made about five light boxes and they worked well. I drew them in Fusion and assigned the letters and shape to be new components. I put them in BLStudio and assigned the different parts different colors and printed them. Now when I bring projects into BLStudio, when I assign colors it looks correct, but when i tell it to slice the object it becomes one color through all the layers.
This happened about the time I updated the software, but not sure if that is the cause or just coincidence. I am wondering if there is a setting that I accidentally changed and don’t understand or if the update may have changed it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
It’s hard to tell without a picture. Are the letters extruded out far enough?
thanks for the reply. They are extruded into the model. I tried making one with them extruded all the way through the model and it looks right in the slicer, but as soon as I slice it, each layer is just the base color. Not just new models. Ones that I have printed previously with success are now just one color after I slice it.
Did you ever figure this one out? I have a different problem with my lightbox. I printed 2 with success and then the 3rd fell apart, twice using the same settings as previous files.
yes. I NEVER would have figured this out without help. It worked before without doing this but somehow now, probably because of an update, I need to:
right click on the component,
select Change type
select modifier.
I honestly don’t understand how that works or why I have to do that now but it was a huge relief to be able to print parts again.
Hope that helped,
I was having the same type of issue, all letters would be visible when the project is loaded into Bambu Studio. I split to objects and then assemble them into an assembly. When I sliced it, one of the letters would disappear and in the preview, it was like the letter was not even there, I used change type and changed that letter to modifier, I then changed that letter back to a part and it is slicing just fine with all letters visible. Very strange.
