I am trying to print a part that was last printed with cura-15.04.4. It requires both support and a raft. With cura-3.0.4, it will generate a raft if support is not enabled. Once support is enabled the raft goes away, expect for the area under the support. The model slices correctly with 15.04.4.
I think this must be something that I inadvertently changed because models that printed ok 2 days ago are showing the same behavior.
