Topic: question about a slicing software feature

Is there any software that will let me select ranges of layers and treat them differently while slicing? I do this currently by slicing a file multiple times with 2 or more different profiles and then merge the code at the appropriate spots, but this is time consuming and errors have been made frequently. is there any software that can do this? My primary goal is to change the layer height at sections that don't need high quality, and change the infill to solid at strategic points.

thanks for any help in advance.

That would be cool! I always wondered this myself but have never looked into it.
