Interlocking depth for painted areas

How deep the areas you painted with another filament interlock with the material next to them. 0 turns it off.

How it works

When you paint a color onto a model, the slicer splits the part into areas of different filaments. With a value above 0, those areas interlock with the neighboring area up to that depth, instead of joining only along one face.

It's the painted-area version of beam interlocking.

When to change it

  • A logo painted in another color of the same PLA: 0 (default).
  • Grip bands painted in TPU on a PLA handle that come loose: 1–2 mm.
