· Stringing issue; which retraction setting for Anycubic Kobra Neo?
This is a popular problem.
Passing the STL or other model file along is OK for some topics but in your case folks would want to see your settings.
With the model loaded and Cura set up and ready to slice, use the "File | Save Project" command to create a 3mf project file. Post that file here. It will contain not just the model, but also your printer and all your settings.
In the Travel section are two settings you will need to adjust. If you hover your mouse over them the tooltips will come up.
"Retraction Minimum Travel"
"Max Comb Distance with No Retraction"
You want to set those up to insure there will be a retraction when the nozzle moves from one tower to the other. After you get that right then you can start on dialing in the Retraction Distance and the Retraction/Prime speeds. Good starting points for those on a bowden printer are 5.0 and 30mm/sec. Most folks end up at 6 or 6.5 and at 35 to 45mm/sec.

In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
