I have a project of wanting to print keyboard keycaps. To make the letters on the keycaps, I would like to change the color of them. I have an AMS with a P1S. I have tried searching, but I cannot find any method of changing the color of a mesh in BS based on the topology. Note the picture below, I w…

You can use height range or simple cube modifiers to have color changes based on “altitude”. Bambu Studio Modifier Operation Guide This guide describes how to optimize the print speed of tall models with modifiers, adjust the infill density to enhance model strength, and add flat text t…

I don’t want it to be based on altitude. My goal is to change the color within the same layer, and to change it based on the topology of the model I have provided

Have a look at the Bambu course. One of the sections explains coloring text. For more advanced topology dependant coloring, you should first start to look into modifiers anyway as you’ll need to get creative for topology dependant color changes. Altitude and same layer/limited volume (like the “G”…

I am not sure I understand your question correctly. Based on my current understanding, if you have an ‘object’ (i.e. the cube or keyboard cap) you can add text to the surface of the object. This is done in BS by selecting the object and then the ‘Ta’ icon att he top of the window. A window will open…

I appreciate your help, however this is more of a precursor to a bigger goal, If i can color text topology wise, I can use custom fonts etc, and furthermore can color things using topology that isn’t text in the future. I will read the training for bambu labs and see what they have to offer in terms…

Keep in mind that you can import any shape as a modifier. So you are not limited to the basic objects implemented in Studio. For example, there’s at least one wood mimicking shape modifier on MakerWorld. [image] 3D printing achieves wooden grain（no need 3D modeling） Bambu Studio …

You can use height range or simple cube modifiers to have color changes based on “altitude”.

For useful tips on text, also have a look at the Bambu Academy Studio course.
