Supports
Because 3D printing is an additive process, each layer of filament needs a base to be built
on. The printer can gradually increase the layer size, so long as the overhang angle is less
than about 45 degrees. Otherwise, you need to create support elements to serve as the
base for adding additional layers. To edit the supports, click the Edit menu, then select the
Supports entry. Alternatively, click the Supports icon. Click the Back button when finished
editing the supports.
Support Options: Click the Support Options button to display the Support Options
dialog. You can select Treelike or Linear supports. Treelike supports are built at
angles, while Linear supports are linear, vertical supports for the overhanging
elements. When you click the OK button, the software will generate the appropriate
support structures. If the model already has supports, the software will judge
whether the existing supports need to be deleted or not on the basis of the type of
existing support, and display the corresponding prompt to let you make the choice.
