using scences

I did some scenes in 1.2, updated to 1.3. Will not load them? Do I have to redo them in 1.3?

Yes, because it was a major upgrade (supports).

I was using the older version. The stl that crashed Contour was due to it being saved in matrix below X plane. I guess Contour can't figure that it need to pull it up. Also when it crashed it changed by background for windows to black.

Your background should be black anyway.

The background on my laptop for the printer is. But I design at home, and was setting up for printing the next day.

It should only turn it black when running contour.

when Contour crashed, it kept the black background for windows.

It would be nice when using auto supports to choose NO base supporting. When printing rings I like my own support base to use for casting. I get around this by having a separate base file and deselecting it for supports. A lot of extra steps.
