prevent travels through the bowl

Posted (edited) · prevent travels through the bowl

as you see in the first 2 screenshots my model is like a bowl and I have a lot of travels "inside"
in the 3rd you may see there is one travel "along the model" and on layer-change there is one travel diagonal over the model
'avoid printed part when traveling' seems to have no effect and even when I change the Z-Seam-Alignment to shortest I have travels to the bowl (and also I can't use this option)
suggestions? I'd like to print with TPU and that stuff just doesn't stop stringing..

    I often struggle to get cura to travel where i want it to/don't want it to.  I wish there was a setting that forced the nozzle to follow an already printed toolpath. The avoid printed part setting wont help you here since I think you want it to travel within the model to avoid stringing?  Have you tried different combing modes? Sorry not a solution but just wanted to say I also have this problem!

    i tried all combing modes but it just got worse
    travel "withing the model" would be the solution I think, yes

    I see serveal threads to this topic but all end up in stringing settings or stepper-current

    as it's not only the stringing I need to solve here it would be great to really find a way to change the travel-moves
