Flat bottomed item with 3mm overhangs

Hi;

I have a flat-bottomed electronic housing that's approx 50mm x 80mm x 10mm high, with a couple of 90 degree 3 - 5 mm overhangs.

I want to print the base on the plate and don't want the entire structure lifting up, and only add supports to the overhangs, but I can't seem to do this.

The editor refuses to allow the item to sit on the bed and even if I override the z offset, it gets reset back again.

So how can I force the editor to locate the bottom of the object on the plate and only add supports from the plate to the overhang ?
