Hole Compensation By Layer Range

[Amarand]

I have no idea if this is possible/practical, but I use Hole Compensation all the time. Love it. Problem is, when I have an embedded logo on the bed, there are “holes” introduced when a 0.2mm HC is dialed in.

I’m wondering if there’s any way to add an option to HC so that this processing is ignored above or below a certain layer line?

For example:

My multi-colored logos are done by layer 4 (I cut 0.7mm, and then create new bodies, first layer of 0.1mm, second and subsequent at 0.2mm each).

My connection points (that require Hole Compensation) are well above Layer 4.

If I had the ability to say “Ignore Hole Compensation below/above layer 4” I could get super happy/clean logos on the bed (where Hole Compensation is not required), and also get my properly-modeled holes to have their 0.2mm Hole Compensation above layer 4.

I can’t be the only person using cut/extrude multi-color logos/text on the bed, along with Hole Compensation for dimensional items above that area.

Note inside “points” of the N, where the green and gold should touch. With HC disabled, a 0.4mm extruder actually gets much closer. The 0.2mm extruder takes twice as long, but with that, and HC disabled, the points actually touch.

Item to be sliced:

With 0.2mm Hole Compensation:

Without Hole Compensation:

Without Hole Compensation and a 0.2mm extruder:

The main thing is, with HC enabled on 0.4mm extruder, which is my ideal use-case, I lose fidelity in corners with logos. But with HC disabled, my properly-modeled holes (connection points) end up being too tight.
