Is there an existing issue for this feature request?
Is your feature request related to a problem?
Yes. In Snapmaker Orca v2.3.3, the user interface enforces a strict hardcoded constraint capping the bridge_density field input at 100%. If a user attempts to manually type a higher value (e.g., 110% or 115%) directly inside the Process Settings tab, the UI throws a validation out-of-range error and instantly reverts the value to 100%.
The underlying slicing math engine is completely capable of executing greater than 100% bridging density. This is proven by importing a .3mf project file containing values like 110%; the core engine slices and prints tighter mid-air lines perfectly in real life without errors. However, the interface panel blocks manual interactive edits.

Describe the solution you'd like
Please align the user interface input field validation bounds with the upstream OrcaSlicer repository (which officially raised the external bridge density limit to 120% in its v2.3 core branch).
Specifically, please update the application's compiled metadata field verification constraints for bridge_density to allow direct keyboard entry and user preset saving for values up to 120%.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Manually editing profile .json sheets in Notepad inside the AppData folders works as a temporary bypass, but it completely breaks an interactive slicing workflow since values cannot be modified on the fly within the actual application layout. Moving to mainline OrcaSlicer is also impossible because it lacks the crucial Full Spectrum color-mixing math necessary for the Snapmaker U1 hardware.
Additional context
The benefit of this is to allow layer to fill completely edge to edge while drawing less material in order to reduce sag while bridging.
