Prusa Slicer for Mac and Adaptive Slicing

Hi everyone,

So I'm looking through my Prusa slicer software on my Mac and can't find anywhere that adaptive slicing exists. Does anyone know if it does? Also I want to clarify a bit that it's the computer generated adaptive slicing not the one we generate ourselves. 

My thoughts are that Prusa might have forgotten to include it in the Mac Os version of Prusa Slicer. 

Thank you for your time and have a wonderful day!!

Click on the part, then on the "stack" button 3rd from the right (next to the big arrows) at the top of the screen. I'm running PrusaSlicer 2.2.0-rc3. I believe the feature came as part of the 2.2.x alpha series, so you may need to update to a recent version. Here it is on my Mac running MacOS 10.14.6.

You can enable automatic adaptive layers with the button in the box at the bottom, or do some (annoying) manipulation with the mouse with the gray bar at the right of the parts.

Thank you for the lovely post @bobstro.... I checked my version and it's up today with their latest one version 2.1.1. The version you have I can't find. I might be looking in the wrong place for an update but even with a google search and search on Prusa website I can't find your version. Maybe you can share the link or guide me in the direction where to search for it. Thank you again for the great post.
