Posted · How to create gcode for only 2nd part of a model

Hi folks,

I'm wondering, is it possible in Cura v 5.2.1 to create a gcode file from a model starting at the 'n' layer of the model?

e.g. the full model has 487 layers. The print failed at the (estimated) 220th layer.

Can I slice it again but only for the remaining layers past '220'?

Or should I use a gcode splitter program or even manipulate the gcode file manually?

Any help is much appreciated.

    Just sink the model into the bed upto the desired height and then slice the part that is above the bed.

    Thanks, I just found the same suggestion in the Cura online help. Just running the second part of my print (1 hour left). I hope it will turn out nicely. Thanks again.
