"Modify settings for overlap" still generates redundant walls

I used a support blocker cube to generate an overlap area for this example. Whenever you use an overlapping shape to influence a main object will always create extra walls wherever these overlaps occur. image.thumb.png.4e7e5552dc047d317857e48fa0d72256.png

    I've tried this on a nightly version of Cura and it does what you would expect it to do. See the attached image.

     

    Could you share your project file? I can have a look to see what is going wrong.

    A "project" is saved with File -> Save..., not with File -> Export...

    Projects are saved as 3mf files, and include the model and settings. gcode files do not include the model, and only a subset of all settings.

    I think I may have found an easily replicatable way to reproduce this. If you rely on wall line counts rather than thickness (in mm) to increment your wall/skins, you need to specifically have those turned to 0 too. This is an easy fix in the cura code as youd just need to add an if in there.

        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
