Posted · Cura 4.5.0 Support Generation/Slicing Error

Hello All:

I noticed that Cura (ver 4.5.0) is creating errors in generating dissolvable support (PVA).

 

The error, which has occurred on two different models, appears as partial support for circular features. Screenshots of Layers 1 , 29, and 30 (attached) in the first model show the error. Three of the four circular recesses have full support, but the fourth is only partially supported (see the arrow pointing to the area that is unsupported). The print is otherwise perfect except for the small area that did not have support. Also attached is the 3mf file for inspection.

 

Screenshots of layers 1, 11, and 12 of the  second model (labeled TL) show the same problem. Also attached is the 3mf of that model. 

 

I noticed that the support error is in proximity to other supported features but don't see how to fix the problem.

Thank you for your help.
