2.4.58.3 is as stable version. So super slicer stable use the stable config now.

Previously the package was an alpha version, witch does use the stable config.

So this issues was (unintentionally) fixed by the update to 2.4.58.3.

I see. I was following the guidance in [1]:

> There shouldn't have much bugs left. Maybe some problems still with "avoid crossing perimeters". The stabl.e release is still the 2.3.57.12 [...]

Sorry for the noise then.

It does look your are right and 2.3.57.12 is an alpha version and the github label is wrong, see https://github.com/supermerill/SuperSlicer/issues/2865.
Sorry for the confusion.

So this issue does still exist and the bug report should keep open.

So after the deletion of aur/superslicer-stable it is not possible anymore to install a stable version of superslicer?

Which config path do the official builds (i.e. AppImage) for 2.4.58.3 use?

At my system the config is stored at `~/.config/SuperSlicer` for stable and `~/.config/SuperSlicer-alpha` for the alpha version.
This might be different at your system, dependent on your environment variables.

You can simple set the `DSLIC3R_ALPHA` cmakeflag to ON to use the official alpha path or to OFF for using the official stable path.
see https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/blob/0fc1dc8f98b0e2f931e7c8f7b147d6b2528fd880/trunk/PKGBUILD#L106

At earlier version `~/.SuperSlicer` and `~/.slcir3++` were also used.
