Model Rotate Model Mirror
Software Operation
Click on the left corner of
the rotate button , you can [1]
see three ring line around the
model, respectively along the X,
Y, Z direction. The default
rotation angle is 5 degrees,
press the Shift key can restrict
the rotation angle to 1 degree.
Button to is the reset [2]
button, can restore rotate status
to the default state.
Button is lay flat button, [3]
can lay the model flat on the
platform automatically.

Click the left corner of the
zoom button , you can see a [1]
contour line around the model,
and shows the current size of the
model. You can input the value of
the zoom ratio in Scale X / Y / Z ,
may also directly enter the size
you need. Button indicates [4]
locking scaling.
Button is zoom reset [2]
button, you can restored the
model to the default size.
Button for the zoom [3]
model size to the maximum print size.
Click the mirror button , [1]
you can pop up the mirror menu.
Button is a mirror along [2]
the X axis.
Button is a mirror along [3]
the Y axis.
Button is a mirror along [4]
the Z axis.
Note that the mirror
transformation is different from
the rotation, such as the mirror
transformation will lead to a
change in the direction of rotation,
and the rotation will not change the model.

View Mode
From the overhang view, you
can see the suspended part of the
model which is shown in red color.
By changing the supporting angle
can be seen suspended parts size is
dynamically changing.
By slice view can easily observe
the generated path, you can easily
observe the different layers of sliced
by slicing altitude indicator, use Ctrl
+ arrow keys can also be observed
layer-by-layer.

1Right-click on the model pop-up shortcut
menu, here are more features:
[1] "Centered" make the model back to the
center position of the platform. "Delete" to [2]
remove the currently selected model. "Multiply" [3]
to copy the currently selected model and
automatically position, which is useful for printing
more than one model at a time. "Split" multi-[4]
component model can be split into its separate components, this process more time-
consuming, try to split the model in the modeling software, models splited can be
printed individually and then assembled together . "Delete All" to delete all the [5]
models loaded. "Reload all" Reload all models, same as F5.[6]
Layer height: This is the most important setting to determent the
quality of your print, maximum value not exceed 80% of the
nozzle diameter.
Shell thickness: Refers to the total thickness of the inner and
outer walls, the outer wall is only one, the inner wall can be
more, set this value to an integer multiple of the diameter of
the nozzle.
Flow: Refer to the amount of printing material, 100% standard
dosage, the more material the model prints more plump.
top/bottom thickness: Is the thickness of the upper and lower
models, usually a multiple of layer height.
Fill density: Control how density filled the insides of your print will
be, a value around 20% is usually enough, 0% for hollow.
Print speed: Speed at which printing happens. Print speed is
affected by many factors, it is recommended to use low
speed for complex model, high speed will cause the feed
shortage, need improve nozzle temperature to compensate.
Nozzle temperature: Is the melting temperature of filament,
general use 200 ℃ for PLA and 240 ℃ for ABS.
Bed Temperature: General use 45 ℃ for PLA and 70 ℃ for ABS.
Default main head: The default is the first nozzle, can also be set
to other nozzles, this can reduce the times of changing
filament.
Support type: The touching build plate support type is shown in
figure , everywhere support is shown in figure [A] [B].
Support angle: The larger the angle, the more support generate.
Fill amount: The larger the fill, the more support generate.
Platform adhesion type: The model which is not easy adhesion
on the platform please use Brim, which easy to warped or ABS filament please use Raft.

Toolpath Structure
Drag layer indicator can browse different
level paths, Ctrl + arrow keys to browse layer by
layer. 3D printing is the superposition of these
different layers and built layer by layer.
