Hello my name is Sebastian and i use S3D and have 2 proplems.
first is: if i create a model i do this most in solid becaus of my bad CAD knowing. if i want to print that model with a specific wall thickness i can use 2-6 or more outlines and no innfill. But is there a way to say the slicer i want 1 inner and 1 outline and the wallthikness of maybe 3mm and the space between with maybye 50 or 100% infill?

I also use a wanhao d6 as printer and there is another problem with S3D.
If i start a print the printer squize material through the nozzle and retract so much that on small prints the first layer have no material. i think he forget to feed back. but if i delete the retraction in the script the printer do the same.

Pretty much every CAD package I have ever used has a "hollow" option that can do what you want. Then just export the STL and load it into S3D.
