I'm trying to get a support structure for a small overhang, the area circled in blue: So, I added a custom support: But, when I look at the preview the support structure is not there. When I enable creation of supports in print settings (with or without the custom support structure added), I see this in the preview" Note the support stops about 1 mm below the overhang it needs to support, maybe because of the nearby overhang and associated geometry? Is that 1 mm gap ok? If not, how do I create a support struct for these overhangs?

Adaptive layers looks to be exactly what I need. But, I can't figure out how to use "Adaptive Layers Topography Size". Perhaps a picture would help? Or, at least something simple like "smaller is always better for quality, but increases print time". Then, I can experiment with different values and determine sensitivity of print time to the setting value.
