Says there are custom support shapes, for the life of me I can't find where you can do that. Only place I found is: import custom support stl as model -> right click on the model -> change model type -> custom support So yes, you can use custom supports but that means you need to draw it up externa...

Custom Support Shapes Supports can now be defined based on a custom 3D model file, unlocking new capabilities for even the most complex prints. Can someone explain what this feature is? 1) does it only mean I can import a STL and define it as support (Import Model -> right click on imported model -...

Hi Clayton, the Rep2 profile you provided worked with the 2X right extruder and solved the issue for ABS (when switched to PLA I get the same issue again though). But unfortunately I'm back to square one now on the usage of the left extruder due to the start gcode changes (initializes T0 only as it ...
