Differential layer high for quicker prints

Hello,

I don't know if this could be possible but I am thinking about a feature that could lead to lower printing time:

If one wants to print in 100μm layers but still have a somewhat acceptable printing time could it be possible to print two layers of the shell in 100μm and then one 200μm infill layer?

Thank you

Cheers
José

You can already do this. Just set the main layer height to 0.1mm, then go to the Infill tab and tell it to "combine infill every 2 layers". That will print a 0.2mm thick infill layer for every two 0.1mm outlines. That way you get high speed, but still good quality.
