With default settings surfaces touched by supports often look ugly and droopy. Use this test to fix that without relying on support materials like PETG or PLA-support.The settings that make the most difference:Quality: Bridge flow: 0.8 (!!!) Thick bridges: Yes (!!!) Strength: Bridge direction: 45 (the point is to prevent it from bridging along the support interface orientation) Support: Top Z distance: 0.21 (depends on layer height and the filament, see below) Top interface layers: 3 Top interface spacing: 0 Speed: Bridge: 10 (has less of an impact but seems to help) Using different line-heights and finding correct Z top distance:The print profile uses 0.20mm (default). If you want to go smaller or bigger make sure to adjust Top Z distance so there is a slight gap between the support interfaces and the blue overhang wall. If you do not do this the supports will merge with the model. Z top also depends on your filament, use higher values if the support interfaces fuse into the model.
