    Hi

    The problems come when you have multiple colors (say 4) and they are all present on a layer (think Rubix cube). Unlike simple color change past this layer stuff, that sort of thing is not easily handled at several levels in our existing tool chains. Brewing up 4 interlocking STL's and getting them all set up is the way it's done. Not a lot of fun ....
