Zgap Bug Workaround
Posted: 10 Jul 2018, 09:34
It has already been posted to this form, but the Zgap between support and part layers currently is not working.
For those wanting to print with supports, here is the workaround I've found works:
1. Slice your part (with supports)
2. Using the "Zvalue" slider (main window, where you can view your part) find the Z height for the last layer of the support
3. Open the gcode file in a file editor
4. Search for lines near the Z height you found in step 2 (search for "z=<HEIGHT>")
5. When you know you're near the right lines in the gcode, search for the last "Support Interface Path" at that z height
6. Delete the commands under "Support Interface Path" down to where the next set of commands is given (the next set of commands will start with a comment regarding the path, feed, etc..)
7. Print!
