Using two profiles to print.....

[Manolocs 0]

Hello, is it possible to use two different profiles to make a unique piece? Reason: sometimes we need to print a big model but most of the model will be hidden so only the higher part of the model must be made in a excelent printing quality, if we could use a profile for some of the layers and others for the higher quality would be faster and much more productive.

Not two profiles per se, but same effect:

1. Click on your model, then use the Support Blocker tool, click on your model, and it will add a cube.
2. Use the move and scale tools so that your support blocker (don't worry, we're about to fix that) covers the area you want to use different settings for.
3. Open Per Model Settings (it's the one above support blocker) and set the Mesh Type to Modify settings for overlaps
4. Use the drop down box to change it from Infill mesh only to Cutting mesh
5. If there's any settings in there, just click the minus button on the right to get rid of them (unless they're something you want to change).
6. Click the Select settings button and it'll open a list of printing settings you can change. Tick the ones you want.
7. Close the settings box and your chosen settings will be in the list, you can put values in there.

For example, as a demonstration I've decided to make one end of my bovine buddy have more walls but a different infill pattern at a much lower density:
