Layer height windows

[lukepighetti]

I’d like to print 100 micron for low detail portions and 25 micron for high detail portions.

I have a part that prints very well at 100 micron except it has a logo which prints very well at 25 micron.

Cheers

This feature has been suggested many times before. IIRC, FL has replied but no definite answers as to if/when this will be available. They recently added the ability to print the rafts @ 100 microns and the actual item at 25 or 50, so the ability is there. See the note below from @Frew a few months ago and the corresponding post.

@Frew

This is a feature we recently released in PreForm 2.6 and 2.7. The raft and support structures are printed at a larger layer resolution to speed up prints. Here’s a link19 to the release notes.

EDIT: I now notice that you mean different resolutions throughout the model rather than on rafts and support structures specifically. This isn’t something we have planned for the near future but it’s an interesting suggestion!

It can be possible to print certain layers at a different thickness but it can’t do any more than change whole layer thicknesses.

That’s exactly right.

Let’s say you’re printing a wizard upright. Shoes at 50 micron, robe at 100 micron, face at 25 micron, hat at 100 micron.
