I would also really like this feature. With multiple processes it is possible to do this (enable vertical lift for only the surface layers so that it is not on all layers) but it feels like overkill to use multiple processes for this, and it's quite fiddly to set up

+1 for 5 or 15 degree snaps when rotating with the mouse

[ADDED] Dense Support Layer at Bottom (Solid / Brim) As one person in that feature request asked for, it would be great to have separate upper and lower dense support settings. I often want dense support under the supported area, but I seldom want it at the bottom of my supports, in fact it reduces ...

+1 for Add accel and jerk settings for accurate build time calc.

Interesting that you have just posted this Mike, I was about to post a pretty much identical question this morning. I am watching with interest. I had a play with the ordering of the processes and it seems if you order the processes correctly you can acheive this. There is no way or re-ordering them...

Also seen the parser message when naming my profile with µ micron character. Haven't seen any issue with slicing behaviour. Just posting here for the record or anyone searching. Maybe the characters should be disallowed at the input stage.

Just to follow up with the solution I used... if I used the "Convert to Solid" in the Meshmixer support generator before exporting as stl this worked. Thanks to all for the responses.

Thanks for the response, that looks like exactly the behaviour, and it did indeed split the model up, but I tried to slice the result and it gave the same outcome. I tried flipping the heal option on and off as well. When I now use Identify Non-manifold edges, I get multiple results, some OK, some n...

Z-Axis3D

So after creating meshmixer support and then exporting as a new stl, there are gaps when I slice the model. Cura does the same thing until I use "Fix horrible", "type-A combine everything"; but I can't find the equivalent options in s3d, I tied Heal and Merge in Slicing behaviour...
