Kromacut could replace the current Smooth Meshing on/off control with a strength selector.
Possible options:
- None
- Minimal
- Medium
- Aggressive
The goal is to let users choose how much smoothing they want based on the model. Some prints may only need a light cleanup around jagged edges, while others may benefit from stronger smoothing. Users should also be able to turn smoothing off entirely when they want sharper pixel-accurate geometry or faster generation.
Suggested behavior:
- None should behave like smooth meshing is disabled today.
- One preset should preserve the current Smooth Meshing behavior so existing users do not lose the familiar result.
- Stronger presets should be treated carefully and validated against preview, STL export, and 3MF export.
- The setting should be understandable as a print/model quality option, not just a visual preview effect.
Important constraint:
Smooth meshing strength must not introduce gaps, overlaps, non-manifold geometry, or broken shared boundaries between colors. This is especially important because Smooth Meshing affects exported geometry, not only the 3D preview.

Desired outcome:
Users can choose the amount of smoothing that fits their model, from no smoothing to a more aggressive softened edge style, while keeping generated models printable and reliable.
