Set both the [[Disable SETTINGS/Filament/Cooling /FanSpeed/Minimum Fan Speed|Minimum Fan Speed]] and [[SETTINGS/Filament/Cooling/Fan Speed/Maximum Fan Speed|Maximum Fan Speed]]to 0.

This is used to provide support in areas of a design that are otherwise suspended in the air, such as a bridge or a ledge. The properties will change depending on which [[:Category:Slice Engines|slice engine]] you use.
