Thanks for this awesome feature!!
But I have a problem, I create my support on my workstation but I can open it on my (old) laptop dedicated to the Solus. Will it be possible to save them as an .stl in the future?
I interested in a feature to create a base plate who like all the support together like the B9C, anybody else?

SC is getting really powerful. Thanks.
Would you please add a feature which let us save the model that we made support for it in sc as an stl file?
So we can use it again. And load stl models with SC supports.

No. There is no plan to have an export to STL function. You can make a flat base plate STL and import it onto contour. Then click on supports and right-click on the base plate stl and remove the checkbox "generate supports". Now it won't participate in the support generation. You can move it around and scale as you wish.

You can save the scene files and it saves the supports. Then you can open them, merge them with other scenes, etc.

Download the latest version of the beta.

Is it possible to have two items items on the platform. One with automated generated support and the other without? As it stands, if I click auto supports it would add it for both parts.
