Cap Layers for infill...

It should be possible to set the Cap layers to Zero to leave one or both ends of the infill open.

I think really there needs to be a TopCap and a BottomCap....with different values....

It will depend on whether this is a topdown or bottom up printer how you want to use them.

I might want the first few layers to have a cap as it promotes better adhesion but leaving infill open all the way to the final layer will allow drainage.

Sometimes I might want to close both ends and post cure any trapped resin if my model needs to be closed.

Other times I might have good adhesion on the first layers even with the infill but need to close the last ones...presumably I could then drain once I remove from the platform.

And all that said the Current implementation seems to not totally follow the current cap layers count sometimes giving less that I specify.
