Touching Buildplate
This causes the support material to build up between the heated bed and
the object. The red example is Touching Buildplate.
Everywhere
This prints support material between the heated bed and object as well as
between the object and itself. The green example is Support Everywhere.

Platform Adhesion Type
Some models have a small surface area contacting the plate. This can
create adhesion issues causing your part to pop o at some point during
the print. To x this, use either Brim or Raft. Raft is better used when a
model has small heated bed contact points and overhangs.
Brim
Brim will create a single layer of lament, contacting and surrounding your
model. This will increase the surface area of the part contacting the build
platform thereby preventing it from popping o the heated bed. Brim will
also help in situations where you are seeing corner lift. Brim settings can
be adjusted in the Expert Settings options.
