Layer Dialog box additions

Hi Guy's

Tonight I was changing some settings and getting used to Simplify3D V4 and I had a thought.

Wouldn't it be nice if you could enter in the total thickness of your Top solid layers , Bottom solid layers, Outline / Perimeters Shells as a number
or just using up and down arrows and have Simplify3D use a multiple of the layer height and display it for us so we don't have to do the math.

I would be really handy to actually see the millimeter numbers or the millimeters per second next to the items you enter.

Maybe even have a option that you enter in layers or actual thickness and have Simplify3D round it to the nearest multiple of the layer height once you exit the input field.

You could even do this for the speed instead of entering a percentage enter in the actual speed in mm/s that you want.

In my option percentages are not always easy to work with when you don't see the result. because you may have forgotten what you base mm/s is.

I have an image as an example but not sure how to attached it. maybe someone can help me out

When authoring your post, look where the arrow points:

In the default phpBB forum style the attachment controls are easier to spot....but in the bland style S3D have created, they're very difficult to see!
