Hi,

I use a FlashForge Dreamer which has 2 nozzles.

I have not printed with 2 colors before.
Now I want to use black in the lower part and white at the top of a model.

How do I do this in S3D? Which settings?

Best regards,
Niels

You have a few options:

1. Assign a process to each object you want to have a certain color if every object is monochrome.
2. Use Custom Zones (can be set using the Variable Settings Wizard) to assign colors to certain vertical zones.
3. Use some software to split the mesh into two meshes, one representing the parts of the object(s) that are a certain color and use two processes, one for each mesh.
