I'm printing a a cylinder that is about an inch in diameter and height. It's wall is 0.020 inches so I have the thin wall option turned on.
After my first print I notices areas around the circular perimeter that were jagged. A closer look at the sliced model in those areas shows that flat spots are being generated.
These flat spots can be seen in the attached image where the nozzle is located and on the opposing side.
Based on some other posts about issues printing circles I tried changing the min wall flow percentage to 30% but that didn't do anything.
Any thoughts for how to correct this? I only have a couple months of printing experience.

Hi,
