Hello,

 

Cura 4.10 damages the first layer if Build Plate Adhesion is set to Skirt. See attached screenshots.
Top: Build Plate Adhesion is set to Brim.

Bottom: Build Plate Adhesion is set to Skirt. As you can see the ventilation-grid is missing. It starts at layer 2. This does not work properly, you get a spaghetti-ventilation.

    Check the Initial Layer Horizontal Expansion.  Make sure it is set to "0".  It's possible that Horizontal Hole Expansion is a problem but if the thin features show up on subsequent layers then the problem may well be the Initial Layer Horizontal Expansion.  I don't think there should be difference between Skirt and Brim though.  Are you using two different profiles with one set for skirt and the other for brim?

    Ups, I forgot to comment, sorry
    Yes, it was Initial Layer Horizontal Expansion and no, the profiles are identical except for Build Plate Adhesion Type.

        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        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.
