use a logo image as a printing stamp
hello everyone,
lets assume I am printing a white rectangle. then I have a vector graphic (or any other image format) in 2 colors that I would like to use as a "stamp" to use it to incorporate it into my white rectangle as a color change setting. as if I would apply a sticker basically. and then associate color 1 with extruder 1 and color 2 with extruder 2 ... and the white would be extruder 3.
how do I best approach this?
thanks for your help!

You can load an SVG file as a modifier or a negative volume and treat it accordingly. Select object, right click, mouse over Add Modifier, select SVG - once placed you can allocate a different extruder to it.
Cheerio,
RE: use a logo image as a printing stamp
Export the white rectangle to an STL file. Then export one color in the logo to a second STL file and the other color to a third STL file. Make sure the logo is located in the white rectangle as you wish it to print. Now, open the slicer and import all three STL files at one time. The slicer will ask if the 3 files are for one image. Say "yes". Your white rectangle and logo will appear as drawn. I am currently printing a figure using all 5 nozzles printing all 5 colors on the same layer(s).
