Enable Support Floor

[Theodor1 0]

Hi,

in order to get a more stable sticking of the support structure to the build plate - is there a way to tell Cura to create a fully infilled base layer of the support structure?

I understand that the "Enable Support Floor" feature would do exactly this, but it seems it is only working on already printed areas, but not towards the build plate.

If it is possible to setup that feature accordingly please let me know how. If not, maybe it would be an interesting feature for future releases.

I did some tests by implementing a self designed base layer directly under the support structure and it showed great results, however this work around is quite inconvenient, especially when printing multiple objects at once.

Thanks,

Theodor

You would need to use a Brim for the model but then you could use "Enable support brim" to give the supports a wider base.

Perfect, that was exactly what I was looking for, this works great and does the job.
Thank you so much!
