You SHOULD NOT apply 3D model operations to it, only a few non-model-dependent operations like exposure time, lift and retract speed, layer pixel editing (CHITUBOX Pro only), etc. are available. Please ALWAYS modify your models on unsliced formats (.stl, .obj, etc.).

Setting
General settings of CHITUBOX Basic.
Display Support Auxiliary Line: whether show support auxiliary lines in model surfaces.
Starting from CHITUBOX Basic v1.8.1, to improve user experience, we disabled support auxiliary lines calculation when loading models, this makes the loading process faster. If you wanna bring them back, auto support will calculate auxiliary lines (they will show up if you remove auto-added supports, but only on critical areas compared to Basic V1.8.1). We encourage you to judge risky areas using the red highlight instead.
Auto Save Interval: the interval of auto-saving. CHITUBOX will generate a temporary .chitubox project file under the Auto Save Path (log path by default). If CHITUBOX exits normally, the temporary project file will be removed.
Auto Save Directory: you can manually enter the directory to be saved, or select a folder as the auto-save directory.
Graphics quality: the refresh rate grade of CHITUBOX, the higher the number, the lower the refresh rate.
