Hi guys! My first post here.

 

I am experimenting with the per model settings and the "modify settings with overlap from other models" mesh type.

I have been successful when using two meshes with unique infill settings for each. In other words I have a normal model and use the overlap of another mesh to have different print settings.

 

I want to take it a step further and add a third level of mesh. so 3 different bodies inside of one another, each with different "per model settings" However I can only have one mesh override the normal model at a time. I tried out the "infill mesh order" settings but it does not make a difference. I tried normal and reverse order. Using numbers 1 to 3, or just 1 to 2 for the overlap meshes. In the per model settings mesh types. I have one set to "normal model", and the other two set to "modify settings with overlap from other models". Using Cura 4.0.

    Yay! Problem solved. Saw a cnc kitchen video and there was a very small detail that clued me in. I should have used "Modify settings for infill of other models". It works beautifully.

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
