On mac - the preview window only shows one material color.

In slicer I said that the capability was two extruders. I then assigned one material to the main extruder, and support material to the second. Then in Repetier, I saw that you can assign colors to materials - but my support material was showing as the same color as the main material.

Has anyone ran into this and what do you change to make it start working?

Have you also told the host you have 2 printer? You can set the number in printer settings.

I had that on 1. I changed it to 2 and it did not seem to change anything.

I installed the PC version and it worked no problem. This is only a problem on the Mac version.

Man the PC version UI and rendering looked terrible on my PC compared to how nice the Mac version looks.

Ok after quite some search I found the problem. It is a bug and will be fixed in the next release along with some other bugs.
