MFM adds additional features to the model by post processing sliced 3D printer G-code. 3D models and printing g-code can be recolored at either layer or individual feature/line level granularity.

The slicing process for additive manufacturing (AM) involves many steps, including slicing the object to be printed and fitting toolpaths to each resulting layer. The toolpaths define the trajectories ...
