-Use different slicer settings in the volume of a selected object.
-**Example**: use a more dense infill in a specified area
-  * Add the object you want to print.
-  * Add the object you want to define the dense infill with (a cube could work just fine).
-  * Change the size and position of the second object so it overlaps the first object at the desired location.
-  * Select the second object. In the side bar, go to ''per model settings'' and select ''Modify settings for overlaps''.
-  * select ''infill mesh only''
-  * select the following settings:
-    * Wall line count: ''0''
-    * Top Layers: ''0''
-    * Bottom Layers: ''0''
-    * Infill Density: the desired value for your print

-When you're using Gradual Infill Steps in your main model, don't forget to add ''Gradual Infill Steps: 0'' to the per model settings
-==== Calibrating for correct dimensions ====
-  * Isolate a small piece of your model which you can use for a fit-test.
-  * In Cura, set the ''Horizontal offset'' to a negative number (in mm) to make the model leaner in the horizontal plane. Set it to a positive number to make it fatter. Use small values like for example ''0.1mm''.
-  * Print the test piece and measure it with calipers.
-    * If the dimensions are different than the CAD model, adjust the horizontal offset.
-    * If the dimensions are the same as the CAD model, but it doesn't fit properly, adjust the clearance values in the CAD model.
