Managing slice properties during export

Including slice properties in buildfile generation

When exporting to certain formats (buildfiles for SLM, LSR, NSP, AI, or ILT), a section in the export dialog is available to adjust these. The export loads built-in defaults that you can modify here for this instance of exporting, and are not saved when you close the dialog.

Example: Slice properties set for export to SLM buildfile. (The parameter named Build Style here is format-specific and only available in this export dialog.)

  1. Prepare slice stacks for contours, hatchings, support, and any others needed for your build.
  2. Select all stacks.
  3. From the main menu, choose Export > Export.
  4. Choose the desired output format.
  5. In Specific export settings, double-click the slice to modify.
  6. In the <format> Export settings dialog, adjust the properties as required by your build.
  7. Click OK.

    The adjustment is now saved to the properties you modified.

  8. Click OK to export the printjob file with the modified properties.
