One platter multiple infill types for different parts?

The help page for the processes didn't really help me. I can't see why this wouldn't be possible but I would like to configure a single platter of prints with multiple infills. PartA 50%, PartB 75%, PartC 100%. Thank you for your assistance.

??? do you have selected i.e. part 1 to process 1 a.s.o. ?
So it is possible to change values like infill-% for each process separately. No problem!

I don't understand. How can I tell part 1 to use process one and part 2 to use process 2

Hello LVNeptune,

when you doubleclick the process, in the bottom left corner you find a button where you can assign models to the different process.
It's a bit confusing first time using it. You'll get a window where every model is active for the process, so you'll have to deactivate the models
you don't want to get printed with this process settings.
The same choice you'll have to do with all other process, deactivating the specific models.

Perhaps it would be great to have something like rightclick on model and choose process settings there
and getting a little icon on the model to see wich model will be printed with wich process.

What i am searching for is the correct process settings for printing some models with raft, and some without. Until know it still doesn't
work correctly, but i have an extra thread for this. Perhaps, if someone has a hint for this, please write it down here ;)

best regards
