Is your feature request related to a problem?

for the moment the raft looks like picture bellow. The issue now is that every layer switches direction, causing each layer to hang off the previous layer, making the raft unstable. becouse its only stable on the point of crossing lines. Screenshot 2024-07-03 123852

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to have an option to lock the line direction switches of the raft. For example, the raft base prints 2mm high with the same line direction (45°), then the raft middle prints 1mm high with a line direction of -45°, and finally, the raft top prints again with a line direction of 45°.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I saw this raft stratege by Grab Print. and it would help me very
