This is simply downloading the new profiles for filament. Someone on the facebook group mentioned when loading [ABS-GF] that the latest version of Bambu Studios wasn’t recognizing the spool in the AMS.
This also plans ahead of filament releases so sometimes you can see what’s in store for future bambu filaments.
While it is wonderful to have a community that can relay the information, it would be best if Bambu Lab could correct the formattin in this dialog so that users can know what is happening before they commit to a change. There will be a package that will make a significant change the the update should be readable to all.
Re the ‘configuration package’, does that install into Bambu Studio or to the currently attached printer? Will the user have to do this with every copy of Bambu Studio, or will they have to connect with each printer?
I did understand the meaning of ‘OK’ and ‘Cancel’. The issue was that it seemed like nothing happened. Did it happen? A response dialog that said ‘Updated Bambu Studio to BBL 1.8.0.27 complete.’ so that the user knows what they’ve supposedly accomplished.
Great idea! How about submitting a suggestion in Github to add a few extra lines of text at the top of the Configuration Update dialog to explain where these settings are applied and what the impact on custom presets will be. And a UI change to prompt Yes / No rather than OK /Cancel.
