You have a few options: 1. Assign a process to each object you want to have a certain color if every object is monochrome. 2. Use Custom Zones (can be set using the Variable Settings Wizard) to assign colors to certain vertical zones. 3. Use some software to split the mesh into two meshes, one repre...

I don't see a hole when I view the file in macOS Preview. Normally when something like this happens, there's an extra mesh in the file and you can get rid of it by using the Separate Connected Surfaces option in the Mesh menu and deleting the meshes you don't want. However, that doesn't work with th...

It slices fine for me in 5.1.2. What version of S3D are you running?

It occurs on every single file I use. Here is one. This may have something to do with the fact that my Mac is an Intel Mac, not an M1 or M2. Simplify 3D recently updated their software to perform better on M1 and M2 Macs, but that may have messed up Intel Macs. Test File.factory The processor archi...

The problem with using a script is different models will start printing with different nozzles, so the script may need to be adapted for every object. It's just another manual step that has the potential to ruin a print if forgotten.

Try reducing the extrusion width or reducing the number of perimeters.

When doing dual extrusion, is there any way to make the initially idle extruder only warm up to the standby temperature instead of heating to printing temperature and then cooling down once the print actually starts?

According to the RepRap G-code reference wiki (https://reprap.org/wiki/G-code), M600 is supported by Marlin (the flavor of G-code Snapmaker uses). It's defined as a filament change pause, but I suppose you could use it for any purpose.

I wonder if they removed it because it was confusing. In v4, the hidden bodies would still be sliced. If they do re-implement it, I'd like to see it slice as it appears on the build plate, i.e. if it's hidden, it shouldn't be sliced.
