:<big>'''[[Slice Settings/General/Support Material|Support Material]]'''</big>== Sync Behavior ==
:<big>'''Starting in version 1.6, settings are automatically synced between instances of MatterControl which are signed in to the same [[Slice Settings/General/Output Options|Output OptionsMatterHackers.com account]]'''</big>. Updating a setting in one instance will automatically change the setting in all other instances.
:<big>'''[[Slice Settings/General/Multiple Extruders|Multiple Extruders]]'''</big>== Overlays ==
== [[Slice Settings/Filament|Filament]] ==are highlighted for a couple of reasons:
:<big>'''[[Slice Settings/Filament/Filament|Filament]]'''</big>=== Presets ===
[[File:Preset Highlights.png|right|framed|<bigcenter>'''Both a quality and material preset are applied.</center>]]When a preset is enabled, the affected settings are highlighted in the color associated with the type of preset. See the [[Slice Settings/Filament/Extrusion#Preset Menus|ExtrusionPreset Menus]]'''section below for more information.</bigbr clear=all>=== Change from default ===
[[File:Setting changed.gif|right|framed|<bigcenter>'''[[Slice SettingsChanging a setting from the default will highlight it in blue.</Filament/Cooling|Coolingcenter>]]Whenever a setting is manually changed from the profile default, a blue highlight appears over the setting and an 'X''icon appears to the right. Clicking the X will restore the default value.</bigbr clear=all>
== [[Slice Settings/Printer|Printer]] Preset Menus ==
[[File:Preset Menus.png|right|framed|<bigcenter>The SETTINGS '''[[Slice Settings/Printer/Print Area|Print Area]]Preset Menus''', shown here with the default (no) presets selected.</bigcenter>]]These menus allow the user to save one or more settings as a preset list under one name instead of changing every setting for a particular material or desired quality individually.
:<big>'''[[Slice Settings/Printer/Features|Features]]'''</big>Both menus essentially do the same thing; the difference is that the QUALITY menu is meant to hold presets of settings unique to different desired qualities and the MATERIAL menu is meant to hold presets of settings unique to different filaments. If a selected preset in both menus each contain the same setting, the setting specified in the MATERIAL preset menu trumps the one in the QUALITY menu.
:<big>'''[[Slice Settings/Printer/Print Leveling|Print Leveling]]'''</big>=== Pre-configured Presets ===
:<big>'''[[Slice Settings/Printer/Custom GMany printer profiles come pre-Code|Custom G-Code]]''configured with presets for common filaments and quality settings. The availability of these presets varies widely depending on the printer manufacturers and MatterHackers'internal test and support department. </bigbr clear=all>
== Show Help == [[File:Show Help-ss.png|framed|right|<bigcenter>'''Show Help''' enabled.</center>]]When checked, an explanation for each function will be revealed underneath its name. <br clear=all> == Settings Level Menu ==[[Slice File:SettingsLevel Menu.png|framed|right|<center>The '''Settings Level''' Menu</Printercenter>]]This menu allows the user to choose between three levels of settings complexity: <br> {||- style="vertical-align:top;"| '''Basic:''' || || The minimal settings group for beginners or those who want to print quickly.More info: [https:/Extruder/www.matterhackers.com/articles/slice-settings-explained-part-1 SLICE SETTINGS EXPLAINED - PART 1]|Extruder- style="vertical-align:top;"| '''Standard:''' || || A few more settings than the Basic level, but not the complete list.More info: [https://www.matterhackers.com/articles/slice-settings-explained-part-2 SLICE SETTINGS EXPLAINED - PART 2]|- style="vertical-align:top;"| '''Advanced:''' || || All MatterSlice slice settings displayed.More info: [https://www.matterhackers.com/articles/slice-settings-explained---part-3 SLICE SETTINGS EXPLAINED - PART 3]|} <br clear=all> == Options... Menu == [[File:Options... Menu.png|framed|right|<center>The '''Options...''' Menu</bigcenter>]]The '''Options...''' menu has five functions: [[#Show Help|Show Help]], Import, Export, Restore Settings, and Reset to defaults. *'''Import''' allows the user to load a slice settings file (.slice, .ini, .printer) into MatterControl. Any existing values will be replaced by those in the file.*'''Export''' allows the user to save all current slice settings values to file.*'''Restore Settings''' opens the 'Restore Settings' window, allowing the user to select from the last ten automatically-saved configurations and restore one.*'''Reset to defaults''' resets all settings back to their default values taken from the printer profile.<br clear=all>
