: Adds new per-layer settings for your selected setting group.

Figure 1: Add Per-Layer Settings.


Select a settings group in the Setting Groups list and click + to add Per-Layer Settings to its models. For example, if the Start Z of Setting Group 1 is set to 0mm, the End Z is set to 4mm, and the Layer Height is set to 0.4mm, the layer height of the cylinder in Setting Group 1 will be 0.4mm within the height range from 0 to 4mm; If the Start Z of Setting Group 2 is set to 3mm, the End Z is set to 6mm, and the Layer Height is set to 0.6mm, the layer height of the box in Setting Group 2 will be 0.6mm within the height range from 3 to 6mm. The effect after slicing is shown in Figure 2.

You can also set different layer heights for different height ranges of models in the same settings group. For example, if the Start Z of Setting 1 for Setting Group 1 (including a sphere and a box) is set to 0mm, the End Z is set to 3mm, the Layer Height is set to 0.4mm, the Start Z of Setting 2 is set to 3mm, End Z is set to 6mm, and the Layer Height is set to 0.8mm, the layer height of the sphere and box in Setting Group 1 will be 0.4mm within the height range from 0 to 3mm, and will be 0.8mm within the height range from 3 to 6mm. The effect after slicing is shown in Figure 3.
