[Feature Request] Extrusion Width Multipliers in Filament Presets #13664

Open jerrygrey opened 5 days ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When working with difficult filament, such as ABS and PC, changing the extrusion width is usually the key to get successful prints. Such as increasing the extrusion width for just the first layer to get more squish and improve bed adhesion. However, you wouldn't want to use these new extrusion widths for other filaments, such as PLA and PETG. Currently, the only way to do so in PrusaSlicer is to create separate print presets for each filament as required, which is a nightmare to maintain.

Describe the solution you'd like Adding Extrusion Width Multiplier settings in the filament preset, such as first layer, perimeters, external perimeters, infill, solid infill, top solid infill, and support material. This will be greatly when dealing with difficult filament.

Describe how it would work Similar to the current Extrusion Multiplier in the filament preset, these new Extrusion Width Multipliers settings would change the flow for each extrusion width depending on the selected filament.

Describe alternatives you've considered Using the current Extrusion Multiplier setting in the filament preset, but its like using a sledge hammer to hit a nail.
