Ironing was designed by a guy (neotko) who prints and sells thousands of items with raised text on top of flat sections on the top of the print. So yeah, ironing might help.
But your diagonal line is almost certainly caused by a combing move. Set "combing mode" to "not in skin" to fix that diagonal line.
Also to answer questions like this also look at your print in PREPARE mode and you can see where it is doing the ironing by scrolling through both vertically and on certain layers, horizontally scrolling.
Thanks for the info. I tried it out and it worked incredibly well/better than without. I still had a couple travel lines. I had Combing set to Not in Skin, etc. But the final product was very acceptable.

We don't often release an alpha version of Ultimaker Cura... So what's different this time? This Alpha contains such a huge slicing engine overhaul that we really need your help!
We wish to celebrate and honor the innovators that push forward the field, technology and world. We opted to not present it as a competition or ranked list. Every innovator has earned his spot on that list in their own way. We also look at the 3D printing industry as a whole and not limit the list to those only using Ultimaker.
