How to implement concept of maximum positive - negative slope and scan frame offset in .m files

[sbibek086 0]

We have been developing a GUI for 3D- printing a cartridge and frame for dental implant procedure.

The frame is already rendered. But we need to be getting rid of overhangs greater than 60 (ie. maximum positive slope) {maximum negative slope concept also applies}.

We need to modify the rendered frame in such a way that there are no sharp bends, that 3D printer can not print and also there should be no necessity of support.

Take a look at how we handle overhangs in the old Cura.

Which version of cura would be that?

15.02 -> The version that is found on https://github.com/daid/Cura/

The new version (15.06) is now in closed beta, but does not have the overhang stuff as of yet.
