Per quanto ne so, non esiste un modo per farlo, né alcun plugin che possa farlo. Ho anche provato ad aprire il file g-code in diversi programmi di modellazione 3D per eliminare alcuni alberi, ma non sono in grado di leggerli.

What a great shame it honestly seems like a big limitation to me. Let's wait for a few others to see if they know anything more

    If you mean together with normal support, I would not know how (could not find an instance where anybody got it working) but you could modify a support blocker to only add support on a small area with tree support enabled.

    Unfortunately a support blocker modified to act as a support will fill the whole area with support (except where it overlaps the model, and ignores some areas inside the model), and it only allows regular support, not trees. I can't help but find it a bit ironic that it doesn't actually support the parts inside that actually need it in some instances:

    But back to something useful: it's worth noting that if you're using trees, a support blocker will stop trees being planted inside its volume but it doesn't stop trees from outside the volume coming in to support parts inside.

    The support blocker in that picture being the darker grey area, and the big red thing is my model. Trees are coming inside both at the right and left ends of the blocker, but they're not planting in front of the model (this is the back) because the support blocker extends past the front of the model.

     

    So unfortunately AFAIK to get trees in only certain parts the only way to do it is to play Whack-A-Mole with support blockers, every time you see a tree you don't want, block if off, and then it'll probably build two smaller trees either side to support the same area. But you'd get there in the end. Probably.

    Potresti anche 

    Sfortunatamente un blocca supporto modificato per agire come supporto riempirà l'intera area di supporto (tranne dove si sovrappone al modello e ignora alcune aree all'interno del modello) e consente solo il supporto regolare, non gli alberi. Non posso fare a meno di trovare un po' ironico il fatto che in realtà non supporti le parti interne che ne hanno effettivamente bisogno in alcuni casi:

    image.thumb.png.13d29a713d2200042e007e95f1676874.png

     

    Ma torniamo a qualcosa di utile: vale la pena notare che se stai utilizzando alberi, un blocco del supporto impedirà che gli alberi vengano piantati all'interno del suo volume  ma non impedirà agli alberi dall'esterno del volume di entrare per supportare le parti all'interno .

    image.thumb.png.250becbd9d81f88516d05f501491adb3.png

    Il blocco del supporto in quell'immagine è l'area grigia più scura, e la grande cosa rossa è il mio modello. Gli alberi entrano sia all'estremità destra che a sinistra del blocco, ma non vengono piantati davanti al modello (questa è la parte posteriore) perché il blocco di supporto si estende oltre la parte anteriore del modello.

     

    Quindi sfortunatamente, per quanto ne so, per ottenere alberi solo in alcune parti, l'unico modo per farlo è giocare a Whack-A-Mole con bloccanti di supporto, ogni volta che vedi un albero che non vuoi, blocca se disattivato e probabilmente lo farà costruisci due alberi più piccoli su entrambi i lati per sostenere la stessa area. Ma alla fine ci arriveresti. Probabilmente.


    Yes, thanks, I'll do as you say

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        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.
