Color-Coding Profile Settings
Posted: Wed Sep 23, 2020 12:43 am
At the moment it is very non-intuitive to know what settings are printer-specific, which are material-specific, and which settings are "quality" specific.
PrusaSlicer (and it's better fork SuperSlicer) solve this problem quite nicely by having very clear tabs for settings that are for printers vs. material vs. process.
A very easy feature that can be added is to simply color-code the text of each setting to match a given category, so that one knows where that setting will be saved without having to dive deep into the help or knowledge base articles.
