Posted · 80mm jump on layer 3 causing "waves on the ocean".

Somethng has changed in my setup and can't figure out what. Im using Cura 4.7.1 and printing on a Ender 3 Pro with PLA @ 215 /65c, 20mm/s and 100% flow and everything has been working perfectly.  The first and second layers are spot on.   Then for layer 3, the Z jumps from .38mm layer height to 1.18mm.  I can figure out why.  Day before yesterday everything was fine, but this started yesterday and continues on to today.  I have looked all through the cura profile and I can't see anything that I can pin this on.  I don't doubt that I may have accidentally changed something but I don't know what.   

 

Can anybody give me an idea of where to look?   BTW, if I use  brim instead of a raft, layer three seems to come up just fine.  It's only the raft that is screwing up.

        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.
