| 5 | +Pleccer incorporates features to make it easier to make a colored 3d model and slice it for a multicolor mixing or non-mixing 3D printer. It is part of the PLEC (purgeless extruding colorer) project; which develops the needs to upgrade your/any printer to a mixing colorr 3D printer. You can find out more about PLEC on the [community site](https://plec.community). |

| 20 | +### What are Pleccer main features? |
23 | 21 |
|
24 | | -* Custom-made generated calibration tests. |
25 | | -* new settings to fine-tune the top surface quality, like 'only one perimeter on top'. |
26 | | -* A "denser infill" option for supporting the (solid) top layers. |
27 | | -* Better **Thin walls** (anchored inside the print, no more random bits at the ends, embedded in perimeter loops). |
28 | | -* Options to change holes dimensions and/or geometry, to print them at the right size. |
29 | | -* Better overhangs (add perimeters if needed, slice them in opposite direction each layer). |
30 | | -* Brim rework: many more options (inside, outside only, 'ears', per object) |
31 | | -* Some new seam options, to help hide them. |
32 | | -* Built-in calibration prints |
33 | | -* Built-in object generation script |
34 | | -* Can join perimeters into a big one to avoid travel moves. |
35 | | -* Many other little options and corrections (like the filled concentric pattern). |
36 | | -* It has also all the current slic3rPE/PrusaSlicer features. |
| 22 | +* Improved color picker (thanks to [colorgrab](https://github.com/nielssp/colorgrab)) |
| 23 | +* Mixing color calibration setting (requires a diy/professional color measurer) |
| 24 | +* Mixing color g-code generation based on calibrated data and the color you pick |
| 25 | +* Enhanced smart retraction and gradient change calibration and automatic model updating for purge-free printing (no prime tower/purge) |
| 26 | +* Includes Arc overhang infill ["Multiplex"-version](https://github.com/stmcculloch/arc-overhang/issues/10) for support-free printing |
| 27 | +* Includes Lightning infill from [PrusaSlicer/Cura](https://blog.prusa3d.com/prusaslicer-2-5-is-here-new-perimeter-generator-step-file-support-lightning-infill-and-more_70562/) |
| 28 | +* Includes Arachne perimeter generator for adaptive perimeter widths |
| 29 | +* It has also all the current SuperSlicer features. |
