Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I print poker chips from 6 different STLs in one final product. Ironing as it works now irons the top of each piece instead of just the top layer. This increase the print time and wastes a small amount of filament. The choice under ironing for "Top Most Surface Only" should have a S on the end of surface because it does all top most surfaces not just the top surface

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like The ability to choose to:
IRON at layer XX and layer YY and layer ZZ and layer ...
Or
IRON at a specific layer
OR
IRON above a specific layer
OR
IRON between layer XX and YY

Describe how it would work
In Prusaslicer under "Print settings" / "Infill"
section "Ironing"
The choice type "Ironing Type" would need a choice added such as "Iron at layer" This will also require an added block for data entry.

Describe alternatives you've considered
you could replace all the choices under "Ironing Type" with a data entry block for a layer or set of layers.

Additional context
I am willing to supply the STLs and G-codes to help show the problem. crow8763@yahoo.com

(from a fellow user) You seem to be describing height range modifiers - you can do that in the slicer now: https://help.prusa3d.com/article/modifiers_1767
Another approach would be to build your model to hold the necessary information. Maybe something like this:
image-1
poker chip v0.zip
Paint on modifiers have been requested: #6928
Cheers!
