How to specify the portion of support on my printing

[Ng Ben]

I want to print "support" about some position
What can I do?

ps. Sorry, my english is poor
hope everyone dont mind !

You can't print support only at a specific area, but you can tweak it a little by changing the minimum angle to generate it, or limit the height (support Z roof). When making the gap a little bigger (I normally use 0.45mm, but changing it to 0.7mm) it's generating no support on tiny places.

When I misunderstood: please post a screenshot with comments so we can understand what you mean.

Excuse me, how to print with the "raft"

example: print the "Bunny Ring"

Raft (three possibilities) is only the first layer on the print bed (Raft // Grid is making two layers of plastic before the print starts).

With that bunny ring, you can use 'raft//grid' to make a good base and combine it with a support structure (eg. 0.5mm distance, 45 degrees and I would suggest to inflate support as well with 1 or 2%.)

Another option is to rotate it, so it's laying flat and requires less support structure.

You can use different settings and check the 3D gcode (models and paths) what's it doing.

OK...

Maybe i try it.

Thank you
