You want to minimize seam visibility on a complex 3D model with many curves. Which seam placement strategy is best?
AAlign seams along the longest edge
BScatter seams randomly across the surface
CPlace seams only on flat surfaces
DAvoid seams by printing in one continuous layer
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Consider seam placement on complex curved models

    Aligned seams create visible lines on curves; placing seams on flat surfaces is limited.
  2. Step 2: Choose best strategy to hide seams

    Random scattering spreads seams, reducing visible marks on complex shapes.
  3. Final Answer:

    Scatter seams randomly across the surface -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Best for curves = Random seam scattering [OK]
Quick Trick: Randomly scatter seams to hide them on curves [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Aligning seams on curves makes marks visible
  • Assuming no seams possible in layers
  • Placing seams only on flat surfaces limits options
