So I have been printing with flexible materials and I have found that travel is the enemy. So obviously, reducing times where a line isn't being printed and travel is occurring is the goal to improve a flexible print. What seems to happen is once my infill is done on a layer, the next layer starts at the same place every time which is often at the opposite end of the part creating a long travel move and making a terrible string across my part.
Is there anyway to fix this? Is it possible to start the next layer right by the last bit of infill?
Start a wall near the last infill?

Hi!

Current settings on Cura 4.4.1:
- infill travel optimization on
- Optimize wall printing order on
- Avoid printed parts while traveling on
Thanks :)
