Supports on the build plate should have a solid bottom interface for better adhesion

Is there a solution to this problem? For instance, does anyone know of a gcode workaround I can use?

For reference I would like to rid this problem, described here: https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues/1165

If this has already been discussed and I failed to find it through endless searching, please point me to the correct link. TIA

I can only tell you that the default dense interface layers work very well provided your print surface is properly cleaned and Live-Z calibrated. You can adjust the density of the support layers.

Zip and upload your STL or (better) 3MF project file for more suggestions.

Edit: My memory was bad. The interface layer density is only for the bits directly supporting the part. I may have been thinking of Cura.

It's a reasonable feature to implement, but you should be able to get decent adhesion in the meantime.

Does creating a modifier block help? It won't be tailored to your part, but you can get a solid layer under key bits of support. I've used this approach for creating mouse ears to tack down sharp corners.

Thank you for the suggestion. Creating a modifier block is brilliant, but cumbersome and laborious on complex geometry (although it may work on simple designs - idk, haven't tried it yet). I'll give it a go today and see what I can do. Thank  you again for your creative suggestion.
