make overhang printable option

Cura has a feature called "make overhang printable" and has an option to adjust angle/threshold at which this feature is invoked. this is the only reason i cannot use PrusaSlicer exclusively. without this feature, a simple flaw in the part means the part needs to be edited or completely redone, sometimes taking hours to painstakingly adjust the part just so it can be printed a little better. the "make overhang printable" feature does the work for you with the click of a check box, brilliant. this feature is additive in nature but someone i heard asked if it could be subtractive also, thats a good idea. anyway i only ever need additive.

https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/6966

an example of how this is useful would be like a threaded hex nipple or bolt, imagine all the supports and fuss you need just to print a part with a small overhang, totally annoying.

 

not gonna work!

 

well that was easy!! to make this change in CAD is super annoying!

Another great example, the screw studs on this enclosure box

 

 

 

wasted material and time on unnecessary supports and no way to support only from build plate, only can be supported from the print itself, not idea at all.

On the Plater tab, right hand side you can select how you want support automatically handled. In your case I suggest either Build Plate only or None.

You can "tweak" support settings in the Support settings tab of Print settings.

One super feature (which I think Cura implemented a while ago) is parameter search on the three profile tabs.
