Posted (edited) · Top/Bottom Layers vs. overhang
I tried to calibrate settings for printing overhang walls and found something difficult to understand.
 
At Layer Height = 0.2 and Line Width = 0.4, the LARGER Top/Bottom Layers value is, solid layers would appear along tilt walls of LOWER overhang angle.
 
Could you kindly explain how Cura engine handles this? Hope I made the question clear enough. Thank you!
