Why is this not printed as a solid wall?

Hello!

I have an stl with cylinder that has a 0.4mm wall, that when sliced in 4.7 comes out as a bunch of bits of wall with gaps.  With 4.6.1 its a solid wall (granted with a bunch of travel back and forth over the layer as it prints).  I'm using the Anycubic Mega i3 printer as shipped with Cura.  What 4.7 gives me is:

    Hi there.
    I was wondering a bit about this, so I'm writing to you.
    It doesn't cause problems in 4.6.1, but it does in 4.7, right?
    In this part alone, it seems to be the effect of a change on the program side, not the slice settings.
    I think I need sigwx's configuration (project file) to confirm the problem.

    Hello!

    I've  attached the project file that generates the slicing I'm seeing.  I'm using the 4.7.0 release, not the beta so maybe that matters.  Your project slices correctly for me, so its probably a setting that is being misinterpreted/interpreted differently/new interpretation from 4.6 to 4.7 in my project.

        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.
