100% infill does not fill on second extruder

[esopalumpa 8]

Hi,

 

I have the problem, that in one model, printed with the second extruder, the void in the cylinder can not be filled. As you can see in the attached screenshot, infill is set to 100% but the cylinder is not filled.

Which version are you using?

Hello,

 

I found a problem in my settings – sorry. With 100% infill it does fill.

But with 99% or below there is no infill at all.

 

I’m using 4.4.1 on Linux.

Well, your screenshot shows the settings for the first extruder, not the second.

Can it be that simple?

Yes, that was the 100% problem.

But the 1 % – 99 % problem remains. Cura does not generate infill between the inner and outer wall of the cylinder.

100% infill is a special case. Cura will not generate infill at all in this case, but generates "bottom layers" all the way to the top of the model. That's why it looks different at 100%

 

Perhaps the area is too small for the normal infill? I would expect a "gap fill" there instead (if it is activated - i think it is a "shell" setting)?

 

In additiion: does Cura has settings like "minimal infill line length" or "minimal infill area"?

I'm not sure - i would make all infill settings visible and take a look at the tooltips.

Guys, this "special case" should be seen as a bug. Does not let override infill settings like speed or extruder at 100%, this is absolutely not according to the "principle of least surprise" and there's no good way to work around.
