Done a few as you describe it but never had any issues.
Just one thing I remembered from another field, make sure you have no interference between the different parts.
That can create a mess in many different applications.

Edited by AndersKCan you post the project file that did this strange printing? And can you post the Fusion 360 design?
In Fusion, did you have 3 bodies in a single component (or the root component, or three separate components? If the latter, did you make sure the origins were aligned?
I am happy to report that the issue seems to have been in my design in Fusion360.
I started from scratch and made sure I used components properly in fusion360, exported the three layers as stl files and did all the right things in Cura and the result printed like it was expected to.
I am not entirely sure what I did wrong but separating things into components is new to me and it is not surprising that I screwed it up. The surprising thing was that I ended up with three apparently good layers that were brought into Cura and all seemed well.
In the past I used separate bodies for my different color layers but that was not practical with text as each letter ends up as a separate body which has to be exported as a separate stl and the whole thing gets very messy very fast. Using components I can export all letters at the same time making it much easier to manage.
Thank you for the assistance !

Has nobody else run into this issue ?
Maybe I will try changing the way I design this thing in fusion360 to see if that might affect anything for any reason.Maybe the fact that the layers share the same base sketch causes some confusion ... who knows .... weird ....
