The string lines are the shortest distance between the points and the arrowhead so Cura may have decided that it's the most efficient path.
Have you tried Combing mode? It makes for a lot of movement on a part like that since it would want to stay over the walls at all times. Moving the Z seam and the Layer Start points can have an effect too. That's a tough part though with those inside corners. Have you tried rotating the part on the bed to put one of the short points right at 6 o'clock? Then put the Z seam in "front".
Here comes Cura 5.9 and in this stable release we have lots of material and printer profiles for UltiMaker printers, including the newly released Sketch Sprint. Additionally, scarf seams have been introduced alongside even more print settings and improvements. Check out the rest of this article to find out the details on all of that and more
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
