It’s best to use the online-tool from Bambu on their website, which is designed specifically for this purpose.

By the way, it’s worth checking out the other tools on MakerLab, too.
I believe the answer to this is the same as I shared a couple of days ago to a similar question.
For what it’s worth, Simplify 3D V4 has an import function that was removed in version 5
You can probably try one of these methods:
- One way is to use software like Blender or Tinkercad to manually create a 3D model from your image. These tools offer a lot of control but can be complex if you’re new to 3D modeling. -
- Another option is using online converters so some are free and simple to use so it can converts PNG, JPG and SVG images to STL files online for free.
i thought you could drop bitmaps straight into the slicer, or am i thinking of a different slicer?
Obviously it won’t be able to setup lithoplane layers etc.
