Pause printer after certain layer or height

Hi,

I would like to pause a printer after certain layer or height in order to add some part in the model. Can I do it in slic3r somehow? I know that it can be added a gcode to the slic3r but honestly I do not know how it should be done. I know that I should add something in Printer settings -> Costume gcode but where and what I do not know really. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for a link. I have done it just putting a command within the gcode file:

G4 S20;
M0 Click To Restart ; Pause and wait for the user

Can I automatise it without opening the output file from slice3r?

I can add it in the Custom g-code as a command before layer change for example, however it change for each layer. Can I set only one desired layer?

Hi Kamil,

I believe you can specify the level in custom code,

never done it myself.
