Been printing for 10 yrs, so It's weird this is the first time I've had to deal with this....
I am required at work to engrave/emboss the fixture # on all prints....so here is the issue...I usually keep things simple...3 wall layers/outlines for all prints.
Well, if I do that, I noticed my engraving looks really bad. So my only workaround I see is add a support blocker for the first layers that include said engraving and make them only 1 outline/wall, then let the rest of the print use 3 walls. Is there a way to let the outside of the part use 3 walls and any engraving/embossing only use 1??? See pic as to what I don't like to see....
