Elephant foot compensation/first layer horizontal adjustment #226

Open jmsjgill opened 2 years ago

jmsjgill commented 2 years ago

I am requesting a feature commonly known as elephant foot compensation for Canvas.

Background: Elephant foot or first layer horizontal adjustment is a feature in PrusaSlicer that adjusts the first layer of a part to be slightly smaller (horizontally, at user specification) than the rest of the part. This is useful for managing glued or fastened seams on parts as well as excessive squish of the first layer due to small Z offset or soft filament that tends to remain soft while in contact with the bed, thus slowly melting out of shape.
