=Problem Statement=
*Slicers have limited ability to modify settings mid print.
*It is useful to get granular control over properties of a printed object for optimizing production engineering
*Or, it is useful to modify printed objects in post processing of g-code - to append more printing to a file. There are limits to how much flexibility one has in the slicer.
*The solution here is to mix g-code files so certain layers have different properties (different slicer settings), or to modify parameters in the g-code itself.

=Modifying Existing G-Code=

=Mixing Multiple Print Files=
*Use Gblend for this purpose - [https://buildyourcnc.com/tutorials/Tutorial-merge-gcode-files].
*Download here. Need to compile from c code using gcc. [https://github.com/wd5gnr/gblend/blob/master/gblend.c]
