Cone editing the diameter
Hello,
I would like to ask you about editing diameter of the cone. If I change the size X, the sizes change at one point shown in dimensions. But I would like to set another dimension X at top of the cone and at the bottom of the cone. It is possible in PrusaSlicer?
Thank you.

The slicer is not the place for design work - but your cone is very simple CAD.
Here is a sample script in OpenSCAD (free parametric CAD) which will generate a cone - you left out a few dimensions so you will have to edit the first four variables:
// Simple cone topd=35; // outside diameters botd=84; tall=120; thick=3; // inside diameter is calculated from this $fn=100; // smoothing parameter difference(){ cylinder(d1=botd,d2=topd,h=tall); cylinder(d1=botd-thick*2,d2=topd-thick*2,h=tall); }
Copy and paste this into OpenSCAD, render it then export as STL which you import into slicer as usual.
Cheerio,
