Software Operation Model Rotate Click on the left corner of the rotate button , you can see three ring line around the model, respectively along the X, Y, Z direction. The default rotation angle is 5 degrees, press the Shift key can restrict the rotation angle to 1 degree.
Software Operation Right Click on Model Right-click on the model pop-up shortcut menu, here are more features: "Centered" make the model back to the center position of the platform. "Delete" to remove the currently selected model. "Multiply" to copy the currently selected model and automatically position, which is useful for printing more than one model at a time.
Software Operation Basic Setting Layer height: This is the most important setting to determent the quality of your print, maximum value not exceed 80% of the nozzle diameter. Shell thickness: Refers to the total thickness of the inner and outer walls, the outer wall is only one, the inner wall can be more, set this value to an integer multiple of the diameter of the nozzle.
Software Operation Advanced Setting Solid fill top: Refers to whether to print the top surface of the model, uncheck will print it with infill method. Solid fill bottom: Same as above, and so on. Spiralis print: Refers to the method of spiral printing the outer wall of the model (single layer), and this feature is very suitable for print glass vase model.

Software Operation Export Setting Nozzle size: Set the nozzle size. Diameter: Accurate measurement of your filament gives better quality prints. Minimum travel: The minimum distance which can trigger filament retract. Minimum extrusion: The minimal amount of extrusion that needs to be done before retracting.
Software Operation Skirt · Brim · Raft Adhesion type: None Adhesion type: Brim Raft Adhesion type: Plugins Plugin enable you to easily include your own features, without having to modify the source code or Gcode.
