2 questions

Hi,
I have 2 questions.

1. If I select Generate automatic supports. How come that when I do a Prepare to print, it overwrites it with the standard Support.
If I disable it, then it won't create anything, and if I say Yes, then it overwrites my Auto supports.

2. When I print something, it seems to be always creating a first layer, that is very ugly, then it will print my object.
once I remove that 1 layer, the next layer is really ugly and bad looking.. I cannot seem to get around that.

Any help is appriciated.

Re: 2 questions

In answer to question 2.
Look at the layer tab and "first layer width" setting.
If it is greater than 100% it seems to space the paths out. Set to 100% and it will be the same as the other layers.
I'm new to S3D so there might be other causes but this worked for me.
