Can I Choose Process By Layer

HI all,

I have a new FlashForge Creator Pro with dual extruders. I would like to print some signs with raised letters, but I would like to the letters to be in a contrasting color. IS there any way to tell Simplify3D to print layer 1-50 on the right extruder and layer 51- with the left extruder?

TIA

Steven

Re: Can I Choose Process By Layer

It's on the advanced tab. You'll add the two processes, then on the first process->advanced you can choose to stop at a certain height. On the 2nd process->advanced you can then start at that height.

You'll need to be careful of extruder heating/purging but the concept is pretty straight forward.
