I am trying to make a tunnel out of white ABS with a chunk of it made out of teal transparent PETG. I’ve found some great settings thanks to @Olias but here is where the issue comes in. I need to use those settings to achieve optimal transparency but I don’t want to use them on the rest of the print. How can I set the modifier to use that profile without affecting the rest of the print?
BTW when I say profile, I mean profile as in “0.20mm Standard @ BBL X1C”, not filament profiles.
If I understand you correctly, you want to have a standard modifier that you can call upon from let’s say a different printer definition. So let’s say you have a printer definition that has 16 walls versus 18 walls and you want to apply them as a modifier.
That would be a great feature but right now, the modifiers are a per-model/per-assembly basis. It would be nice to be able to call in a preset rather than going into each definition. I’m trying to think how one would do a workaround.
Here’s a concept if I understand you correctly. From a modifier menu(layer height in this example) one would have a popout box that would list the predefined presets and apply them to that modifier regardless of whether it was a cube, sphere etc and would override the printer settings for that modifier.
If that’s the concept, I’d sign on for that being very useful. It should also be noted that this would be one of the first suggestions in a long while where someone hasn’t suggested a CAD function being added to the slicer. This function belongs in the slicer, it has no other place.
That’s exactly what I would I was looking for. Thank you for making that mockup, the original post probably should have been more clear. I changed the topic to feature request but not too confident in it getting added anytime soon. Is there somewhere to suggest features like this for Orca?
