problem with 3D printing sequence of processes

[pholthuizen]

Hi All,

I only just noticed this, but if I'm printing an object with several processes going, more than 2, it will not cycle the processes. Rather the sequence goes back and forth. So for example, I have the following processes:
A - outer volume
B - inner volume
C - internal support

S3D prints the layers in the following sequence:
Layer 1: ABC
Layer 2: CBA
Layer 3: ABC
Etc.

This is a problem for me because I'm using parts of the inner volume to build the outer volumes overhangs. Is there and way I can force S3D to 3D print the layers as ABC for every layer?

On a separate note, Every layer seems to be 3D printed clockwise. It would also be great to have the option to have the layer direction switched for every layer, to avoid problems with warp while cooling.

Is any of this adjustable in S3D V5 maybe?

If you have multiple models in the same process, you can use Edit Process Settings > Layer tab > Island Printing Order - change to "Consistent Order". However, if you have multiple processes it usually tries to minimize movements between them.

I don't know of a way to change CW vs CCW in V5.
