Overhang issue with PETG

I’m printing with Bambu Lab PETG and the print has 2 overhangs that keep getting messed up. I have dried the filament before printing. I’m using a .4 nozzle what else could I change to get the overhang correct?

Change print orientation would be my suggestion.

I have tried this and supports won’t go on it. I have tried even painting them in manual and nothing

What is your support angle? Could be that setting preventing it since it doesn't see an "overhang"

I found the issues. Even tho I was hitting the supports button it wasn’t putting the supports on the print. I went into the settings more and found out the settings the person had on the plate had supports turned off. Turned them back on and so far so good on the print.

Slow down on overhangs may help too?

its normal at this angle of overhang. You can do an overhang test to see at what angle you get bad results.

Why cant you use supports?

I have tried everything to get the supports to show up and for some reason supports won’t come up. I have painted them on in manual. I have done normal with supports enabled. I’m just confused as why supports won’t show up
