Edit Internal Supports

General Discussion

Hi,

Is there a way to manually add internal support? I only want to add support in specific locations.
Also, is there a way to change the viewport display to either wireframe or ghost?

Good morning @Tommy1 -

This is a good question, and, yes, you can edit internal supports.
In Preform, the large slider on the right side is the slicer slider. Normally this lets you see the part layer-by-layer from bottom to top, but it inverts when you’re in support editing, cutting the layers from the bottom as you go.

By then orienting the angle of the camera so you can see into the part, you can manually add internal supports.

Jen
