### Dithering Settings
|
||||||
|
Full Spectrum includes advanced dithering controls to fine-tune the layer alternation behavior for mixed filaments. These settings are found in **Others → Dithering** in the print settings:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Dithering Cadence Height A & B
|
||||||
|
- **What it does**: Controls the height (in mm) of each alternating segment for the two component filaments
|
||||||
|
- **Cadence Height A**: The height of layers using the first filament in the mix
|
||||||
|
- **Cadence Height B**: The height of layers using the second filament in the mix
|
||||||
|
- **Example**: Setting A=0.3mm and B=0.15mm creates a 2:1 ratio pattern where you get twice as much of filament A as filament B
|
||||||
|
- **Use case**: Fine-tune color intensity by adjusting the relative amounts of each component color
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Dithering Step Size
|
||||||
|
- **What it does**: Defines the Z-height increment (in mm) for each dithering step
|
||||||
|
- **Purpose**: Controls the resolution of the layer alternation pattern
|
||||||
|
- **Default**: Typically matches your layer height setting
|
||||||
|
- **Advanced usage**: Set smaller values for smoother color transitions, or larger values for more distinct color banding
|
||||||
|
- **Compatibility**: Must be compatible with your printer's Z-axis resolution
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These settings give you precise control over how your mixed colors appear in the final print, allowing you to achieve different visual effects from the same filament combinations.
