Comment on STL vs Modifier quality
kbob@chaos.social 2 days ago@Blue_Morpho I usually make decals 3 layers thick. That puts some color behind the surface color, and it helps. With a layer height of 0.2, I'd extrude the decal into the object 0.6mm deep.

Oh cool! You’ve done decals? Have you ever seen the same issue where Orca’s SVG modifiers create perfect filament paths compared to the gcode it creates for STL/Step file geometry?

@Blue_Morpho I don't use Orca; I use PrusaSlicer. I haven't really compared the two ways to decal, no. I haven't had problems with bad slicing.
You can also try exporting a .STEP file from Fusion. .STEP retains even more information about your intent than .3mf.
.stl: just triangle meshes
.3mf: triangles + assembly
.STEP: BREP (solids, faces, edges, etc.)
