  1. Yes, What you mentioned makes sense. This is effect is probably made even worse by the polygenistic (I made that word up) surfaces approximation of the original .stl file. I've reduced the layer height from 0.4 to 0.1 and it greatly improves the issue. For documentation I made the images to show the result. Thanks for the explanation!
  2. By the way, according the color-scheme the yellow parts in my images should be related to the top/bottom structures. I'm pretty sure I've messed with about every setting in that menu, as well as the walls menu, still no idea.
  3. I'm using a model that is essentially only a 2D shell and is empty inside. Cura treats this fine for the most part by using walls to build the model. However, I'm struggling with these additional walls (and infill between them) that Cura seems to invent. I want the walls of the model to be uniform and with these additional walls that becomes impossible. The added images show the wall (in red) and the whatever additional walls (in yellow). It seems to have to do with the diagonal overhang of the red walls, although the second image shows that the overhang is hardly an issue. Regardless, I can't find any settings to manually play with this feature. In the images the wall line count is set to 1 and the top/bottom thickness to 0.0. This still generates the first and last layers though, and with the excessive overlap (5 layers before this breaks) the bottom is practically solid (see third image). Is there a setting I haven't found to play with the generation of the yellow lines? I'd like to turn this off and generate these structures through the wall line count and top/bottom layers. Thanks in advance.
  4. Thanks for the help. I hadn't installed any plugin's and I've checked to be sure that the list is empty. I also looked at my start-up code for the printer but found no code suggesting a filament change. What's weird is that it's only in the first code that is saved, so Cura generates it only in the codes that have not been saved before, not by default. It seems to be a setting of Cura itself then, not in the g-code generation process.
  5. When I open Cura, for some reason, the first print it saves always forces my printer to do a filament change. Naturally I don't always want this. I'm aware that I can edit g-code and that I can try to save the file twice, but I would like to solve this through the software (once and for all). Is there a feature or button that I'm overlooking? Thanks for thinking along with me.
