The slicer setting I would like to see is automated hole strengthening for screw holes.
Haha, yeah, I’ll give it a good clean today 
Was testing a lot of prints so it didn’t clean as much as I should have…
From what I can see, it appears there is a gap and it’s not printed flush but… well I’m at the threshold of my knowledge so I don’t know how to rectify that…
Thanks for the link, it does seem relatively straight forward if the colours automatically export in the print. And it would streamline my workflow substantially… might be easier to upgrade from the educational license then if that will work.
Thank for clarifying further.
My test doesn’t actually appears as a seperate body in my items tab, which i think is the issue.
The ‘text’ on my box is made from projecting a logo onto the surface, so I assume this means the subtract process won’t work? It will only work when using text generated as a new object within Shapr3d?
You can subtract with the project tool but Shapr treats projections a bit different. You can subtract the projection result, but you are missing the ability to change the new bodies to “Intersect, new body and union” while extruding downward into the original/ main body.
Here’s some older work before the text tool was a thing. Customized my font in Corel Draw and imported it as DXF.
You only need to project if the face you want to add text isn’t flat. If it’s flat, select the face and choose sketch directly onto it and add the text on that sketch.
The easiest way to do this is to place the text sketch right on the face you want to insert it to.
If you need to project the text from an imported drawing, project it as a new sketch and do the same thing I do here:
Like this, the text inserts will be completely flush with the base body.
@DrKronos thankyou so much for the video, that was really helpful and I can see where I was going wrong! I didn’t understand the ‘new body’ part.
So, the good news it that I’ve got it to work! (see print attached… Woo!).
However, I did notice that when I try and lift one of my letters, it doesn’t seperate from the body, and rather seems to extrude… can you tell me what I’m doing wrong? (See image).
That’s because you’re only selecting the top face of the letter object before “moving” it (actually you’re offsetting that face). To select the whole object, just double-click the face. Then you can move the whole thing. Or select it from your items list.
Further, if you select/ highlight all your letter bodies then right click you can make a folder with the letters inside. Then you select the folder and it selects all the bodies in it.
The items bar is essential for selecting bodies you can’t see. Grouping bodies.
