Re: Top Layer has not enough overlap over the Infill.

Guys, Thanks for taking the time to reply - it is appreciated. Unfortunately user:smartavionics reportedly had no significant follow up reply to the email he sent S3D about this particular matter, so I really don't see what benefit it would bring any of us if I also write on the same matter. Also, I...

Re: Top Layer has not enough overlap over the Infill.

Hello S3D, Please could you at least acknowledge this thread - officially or unofficially. It has after all been some while since the issue was first reported. I do like a lot about S3D and have in the past recommend it and the forum-based product support without hesitation. This issue, together wit...

Re: Top Layer has not enough overlap over the Infill.

This issue did have some work done on it in v3. Edo, what version are you running? The issue was that where there was a vertical wall above a top surface, the top surface was stopping short of the next layer, leaving a weak edge. The changes in v3 were to extend the top surface so it underpinned th...

Re: Top Layer has not enough overlap over the Infill.

OK, here's what I sent to s3d tech support in June this year: Hello Joey, I attach a factory file that illustrates the problem. The solid layer on top of the "arms" of the part stops immediately underneath the perimeters of the central boss. I believe it would be much better if the solid ...

Re: Top Layer has not enough overlap over the Infill.

This factory-file is for me without any issue. The center-area, where the cylinder will be build, has no top-layers and that seems normal for me. The last top-layer: http://up.picr.de/23641776fk.jpg The first layer builds up the center-cylinder: http://up.picr.de/23641777pp.jpg Following layers: ht...

Solid layer extra inflation distance under subsequent wall

Just as v3 introduced 'Extra inflation distance' for bridging, it would be very useful to have the same feature available to increase the extent of an intermediate solid layer underneath a subsequently printed wall. In some scenarios, the strength added to a part by adding such extra inflation dista...

Re: Simply fix to increase strength of Infill

I began using S3D last year and except for the problem being discussed, I'm generally very happy with it. I'll continue to recommend it for the things I believe it still does better than Slic3r and Cura, but it is very frustrating to see that S3D v3.0 still hasn't addressed the issue of poor infill ...
