Cura thin lines help

[jordan_cocoon3D 0]

Hello,

I'm new to Cura and am looking for some advice on printing thin walls.  The attached image illustrates the results of the slice with 0.4mm nozzle and 'print thin walls' option selected.  Is there a setting I can choose to force the tool path to print each letter as a smooth, continuous path rather than broken paths as it currently?

TIA

Cura should be doing it as a straight line if the model has one line making the letter. Are the letters just one part or a collection of multiple parts. Also, what version of Cura are you using? 4.5 has some slicing improvements that may help.

Hi @buglykitty thanks for the response.  The model was made in Sketchup so each letter is one part.  I'm using 4.5.

Hi @buglykitty thanks for the response.  The model was made in Sketchup so each letter is one part.  I'm using 4.5.  Playing around with the settings it seems to be something to do with the Z Seam Alignment.

Oh yeah, that does has an affect on parts looking weird. Did you fix it by playing around with the z-seam settings in cura?
