Spiralize, but with lined bottom layers?

In Cura 4, when I printed bowls, cups, vases, etc in spiralize mode, the bottom layers would have circled borders with lines in the middle.  This was great and always resulted in a excellent interior bottom surface.  

 

Now in Cura 5, when spiralize is selected, the bottom layers are printed completely in a circular pattern which is not nearly as smooth and results in a blob in the middle.

 

Is there any way in Cura 5 to force lines for the bottom layers when spiralizing?

 

I'm using an Anycubic Vyper and i've attached the profile.

    This issue is still present in the live release of 5.1. Any idea if/when this will be addressed? Until it is, Cura 5.1 is not a great option for spiralize/vase mode prints.

    Thanks for raising this, we've been getting multiple reports on this.

    I'll raise it with the team again.

    Hello all.

    There have been several reports (complaints really) on GitHub (#12862 for one) and it is alleged to be on the backlog as Cura-7926.

        (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.
