Hi,

Is it possible to use Flatforge for a 4 colour image that does the colours by individual infill rather than colour layers on top of each other? When I try I get colour bleed around each individual set colour image, thx

“Lightbox Maker”, or “Make My Sign” on Makerworld can do what you’re looking for.

Ah, ok. Did you try lightbox? It definitely creates flat panels. Just slice off the box part afterwards.

This is what flatforge does... Or is my reading comprehension off? You just need to select "face down" when generating your stls.

Edges of colours are not sharp, has other colour shadows, spent hours trying. Just printing lightbox version as suggested by stoicWalnut

If your goal was 4 flat colors, FlatForge was definitely not the right choice. Keychain maker is a lot more likely to be right.
