Slice properties reference

Not all export formats support all slice stack properties, and some of them expect an equivalent under a different name or in a different format. The generic CLI format, being generic, is not listed here.

Include in export and time calculation*

Yes

* Include in export and time calculation is a special property that is itself not written during export but affects how Netfabb handles the slice stack during display: When set to No, the slice is ignored during build time estimation and is not included in the export, either. For example, use this setting when you want to exclude but retain auxiliary or dummy slice stacks that are only used to derive other toolpath data, or when you want to retain variants of the same stack generated with different settings each.
