Posted · Cura support generated outside of model bounds with 5.3.1

Hello,

I'm seeing this weird behavior of support being generated where it doesn't need to be. In previous 5.0 version this worked without a problem.

 

I updated to 5.3.1 cause I had another problem with adaptive layers in 5.0.

 

As you can see in the images, 5.0 generates the support material like its supposed to, but in 5.3.1 the material sticks outside of the object bounds.
This is just a test object to showcase the error.

 

I hope someone can either point me to a setting that might fix this, or for a future version to fix this problem.

 

I've tried changing the following settings without any success:

- Enable Support Interface

- Support Z Distance

- Support X/Y Distance

- support Overhang Angle

- support Density

- Support Patterns (Zig Zack + Gyroid)

- Support Density

- Support Brim

- Support Wall Line Count

    Support Horizontal Expansion.  0.8 = 2 lines width it's too much in your case, try a value between 0 and 0.6

        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...

        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.
