Hmm, maybe I just haven't been able to figure it out in rep g, but there really doesn't seem to be an option.


The flat bottom thing, yeah sort of. With s3d you can move the model so the base is below the print bed.
You can do that with makerware as will, but makerware still prints the whole mode (weird but true) S3D ONLY prints the part above the printbed.
That's useful.
That was what I was worried about. I thought the software might be too dumb to realize it shouldn't do the toolpath. It is free, after all. How much could I really expect?
