Hi All,

I want to change the Wall thickness of an object such as a circle or cylinder. I want my wall thickness to be exactly 3mm in size. When I tap on the outer wall it allows me to change the total diameter distance. I want to be able to enter the wall thickness. Right now the wall thickness is in fractions of a mm. I like to define dimensions as a whole number for 3D printing such as 2mm or 3mm. Is there a way to do this task or can this be added as a feature?

Thank You
