Outside Perimeter Inset-Offset and two more
Posted: 28 Jun 2017, 16:24
Hey guys,
I've been using KisSlicer as my main and only slicer for a very long time now and
I have three feature requests that would benefit your software quite a bit:
- Ability to change the inset offset for outer perimeters and inner perimeters
(holes) separately to realize even move precision. The inset feature is THE BEST
I have seen for 3D printers. It works like a charm and I can design parts to
press-fit tolerances. 15mm are exactly 15mm. However, this causes the part
outside to shrink as well such that 45mm outlines are only 44.7 or less. This can
help when I have parts that need to fit into each other but I would love to have
control over that offset as well. Would you think detecting the outer perimeter
and adding a separate inset-offset option for that would be a huge effort?
Thanks guys and keep up the great work!
Timo
