[ALREADY ADDED] Multiple Parts / Different Processes

Please add Multiple Parts with Different Processes or at least some parameters like different perimeters and different in fill. This would be very useful printing parts require have higher infill in the same batch as some that don't require as much for saving fillament and time.

Re: Multiple Parts / Different Processes

You can already do this, just use multiple processes.

Re: Multiple Parts / Different Processes

To be a bit more specific, you can do this in multiple processes if you select Models on the lower left and choose which models each process applies to.

Re: Multiple Parts / Different Processes

Here is an example of how to do what you want. I have four parts and four processes, one processes for each part. The infill setting for each part is different. After creating the four processes, selecting the parts that each process would use and setting the different infill percentage I went ahead and grouped the processes.

Grouping processes means that any setting that was different between the processes remains individually changeable, any setting that was the same are locked so if you change that setting in process 1 the same setting gets applied to processes 2-4 as well. For example if I decide I want to change the first layer print speed I only need to open one of the grouped processes and change it and it will automatically be applied to the others.

This particular part was not a good choice as you can't see the effect of the infill changes but I had just printed it last evening so the file was handy.
