    You can use the support blocker or any other form you like and modify specific parts with different mesh types (button above support blocker).

    There you can choose what you want to modify, your wanted feature "make overhangs printable" is also available (note: not every setting is available). 

    Just play around with this, till now, i got everything working with it what I wanted, but I never used this feature

    It doesn't work

  2. How can i set a model to only have the bottom half or any part of the model to use the make overhang printable feature?

    I want only certain portions to have this feature and the other parts to be left alone.

     

    In the picture i have circled the part i don't want changed by feature. It would be nice if there was a feature like support blockers for "make overhangs printable" feature.

  3. I did more testing as my results varied print to print. Seems it's purely an issue with my voxeLab Aquila machines specifically. And the ender three likes m25 instead of m0.

    I'm thinking the voxelab's have a z height stepper issue that only shows itself at taller heights.

    I printed very short small objects for testing but when I switched to taller objects the pause issues shows  itself a lot more.

    I know it's with the machine itself because it does it even if I do a manual pause and continue.

  4. Okay so i did some further testing, seems like its the firmware on the machines causing the issue.

    Ender 3 stock firmware doesn't like M0 command, but likes M25.

    Stock voxelab aquila likes m0 and m25

    Custom firmware for these machines seems to be causing the height issue i was having with the pause.

    I have reverted back to stock firmware.

    JG maker artist d works with pause as well.

    Super frustrating as i have messed up a good bit of prints figuring all this out.

  5. I am using layer number with no zhop and no adaptive layers. I looked at the g code it makes and if you pause at a layer let's say layer number 12 which is 3 mm it will resume at 3 mm + a layer number. So for instance my layer height is 0.25 if I pause at 3 mm with layer numbers it will resume one full layer above the print. After manually adjusting this code to resume at the correct height it resumes fine. Whoever coded these pauses made a mistake as it resumes one full layer height above where it should.

     

    I am using two voxeLab aguila's, one ender three V2 and a JG maker artist d.

  6. When using the latest Cura 4.13.0 and i have tried the revision before that, it resumes at the wrong Z level, like it's printing a layer above where it should be and doesn't touch the part just oozes out above it. Does this on every model.

    Using Ender 3 v2 and Voxelab aquila's

  7. I get this all the time, its not the model its Cura, i have the same issue and if i change to the stock profiles it doesnt have the issue, if i switch to my custom profile the problem exists. If i change a stock profile to the same exact settings the problem doesn't exist, same issue for items that are max height not wanting to slice... Its a profile issue.

    There is only one model in the workspace and you have it set for "overlaps" - but there aren't any overlaps because...like...ya know...there is only one model in the workspace.

     

    Select the model.  In the "Per Model Settings" select "Print as Model".

    The next button down is "Support Blocker".  Select Support Blocker and click somewhere on your model to add one.  They come in at 10x10x10 I think.

    With the support blocker selected select the Scaling tool and turn off "Uniform Scaling".  Drag the handles of the support blocker and make the support blocker larger than your model so it will cover the whole thing.  Rotate the support block and move it as necessary to cover the whole model.  Always rotate last.  Trying to make changes with the blocker (or model) at an angle is odd.

     

    Or you could just turn off Generate Support.  The key is that the way you have it set up there is no model, just a mesh modifier.

     

    There is no "print as model" on mine, "support blocker" doesn't let me add one.

    Tried turning off generate support as well, still cant slice 😞
