Prusaslicer ignoring supports in stl file
Guys,
Im trying to print a model that has some very small supports as part of the stl file, but after slicing - they are gone. How can I stop this from happening?

Thanks!

They are probably smaller than the extrusion width and so are not sliced. To be certain we would need a copy of your project file. In PS use File>Save project as. This will save a .3mf file. The 3mf will contain the contents of the plater as well as ALL the settings you are slicing with, any modifiers etc. Its a snapshot.
It allows us to quickly and iteratively check for issues and problems as well as use the slice preview to look for common problems. Its the single best way to get help as we dont have to play 200 questions regarding settings and people can post back modified 3mf files with examples of any changes needed.
The forum however is very limited in what file types are allowed so you MUST zip up the project to attach it. Otherwise it just wont. No warning, it just wont attach it.

You could try enabling thin wall detection, but be aware that feature can sometimes cause unwanted side-effects.

Extrusion width 0.35 down from 0.4 fixed it, thanks!
