Support Structure Perimeter

Hey Simplify3D Community,

i came across a Problem which i didn´t saw before i used soluble support.
Jagged support at 100% dense support structure
Jagged support at 100% dense support structure
As you can see the Support structure is placed like a Gap fill in a Jagged line.
Of course this Structure is visible if you use a small offset (like you should with soluble support):
Jagged lines visible on the outer Shell
Jagged lines visible on the outer Shell
This pretty much ruins the beauty of a soluble Support because it doesn´t look that much better normal support.
I think one or two Perimeter between the Support Structure and the Model would fix this issue.

I also got an Idea for a (not so practical) workaround:
Generate the Support Structure yourself and place it as a seperate Object. Allthough that should work with normal bodies, its no help for complex geometrys.

So im requesting hereby a Perimeter feature for Supports

Best

Re: Support Structure Perimeter

Am i really the only one using Simplify 3D with soluble support???
