Problem summary

On Ubuntu 24.04, in Creality Print 7.1.1.4472, settings inputs become read-only and cannot be edited reliably.

Affected areas:

• Filament settings
• Process/Slicing settings
• Printer settings

This is reproducible in 7.1.1.4472 and does not occur with 7.0.1.4212 on the same machine/workflow.

Environment

• OS: Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS (x86_64)
• Problem build (official Linux AppImage from v7.1.1): CrealityPrint-V7.1.1.4472-x86_64-Release.AppImage
  • URL: https://github.com/CrealityOfficial/CrealityPrint/releases/download/v7.1.1/CrealityPrint-V7.1.1.4472-x86_64-Release.AppImage
  • Verified sha256: cf9daa14dda8168c131f504c875ec089b498db3a034dcb7789ce5c05b73f98f0
• Comparison (works here): CrealityPrint_Ubuntu2404-V7.0.1.4212-x86_64-Release.AppImage

Correction: An earlier draft mentioned CrealityPrint_ubuntu2404-V7.1.1.4472-... — that filename does not exist on the v7.1.1 release; the Linux asset above is the correct one.

What was tested before reporting

A full cleanup was performed before retesting 7.1.1.4472:

• removed ~/.config/Creality/Creality Print
• removed ~/.local/share/CrealityPrint
• removed ~/.cache/CrealityPrint
• removed ~/.Creality
• removed temporary Creality folders in /tmp

After that, 7.1.1.4472 was installed again and tested from a clean state.

Reproduction steps

1. Open Creality Print 7.1.1.4472 on Linux.
2. Select/add printer profile.
3. Create a new filament profile from scratch.
4. Try to edit parameters in filament/process/printer tabs.

Actual result

Inputs behave as locked/read-only and edits cannot be applied normally.

Expected result

Inputs should remain editable and values should be saved, as in 7.0.1.4212.

Technical hypotheses (same class of issue as #552)

Possible regression area in GUI state / preset editability flow (see also discussion in #552):

• src/slic3r/GUI/ParamsPanel.cpp
• src/slic3r/GUI/Tab.cpp
• src/slic3r/GUI/SyncUserPresets.cpp
• src/libslic3r/Preset.cpp

Hypothesis: stale active-tab / preset state causing fields to be treated as system/default (read-only). Not confirmed; matches symptoms.

Request

Please confirm as a Linux regression in the 7.1.x line (including 7.1.1.4472) and advise workaround or planned patch.

[MAKalantari]

same issue on arch and kde.

[TuriGitGit]

ubuntu 24.04 V7.1.0.4414
same issue.

[pjJedi]

same issue non ubuntu 24.04 V7.1.1.4472 Mine also keeps restarting after closing

[deereslv]

Same here on Linux Mint 22.3 (ubuntu 24.04)
Only version 7.0.1.4212 works correct, releases after that are useless for managing filament settings.
