@Weaver The light intensity should only affect exposure. As your bulb ages you may need to increase it. If you get a lot of flashing you might want to decrease it.

Love the easy gird adjustment.

No, you cannot force to put a support tip on a surface that is pointing upwards, because that would be counter effective.


well there have been cases, let's say a long sword or a vehicle antenna that consist of a long thin geometry pointing diagonally up and would benefit from a few extra support tips so as not to wobble

If it needs support or if there is worry about wobble, which there shouldn't be any, then change the angle of the model so that the sword/antenna is at an angle. You'll get overall better layering and you can add supports on flat parts where needed.

guys ty for the tips, of course that is what i already do, i design custom supports (other orientation on some models is not an option) BUT if there is a way to do our life easier or faster, why not?
