Remember that this setting increases the layer height of the infill. So if you are printing at say 0.2mm layer height and put a sparse infill every 2 layers that infill will be extruded for a 0.4mm height. If your nozzle is too small then the problem you are experiencing will happen as a 0.4mm nozzl...

Just to add to my request - using relative values sometimes can cause a lot of problems. For example i regularly print at 0.2mm layer height and then put first layer at 150% to give a 0.3mm layer height. If I change the layer height to 0.3 for a print that I want to get don quickly I then need to re...

Remember the predictions from simplify3D assume that your printer is extruding exactly correct (ie perfect esteps). If you are slightly over or under extruding this error will grow over time even though the print may look and measure just fine.

This would be very useful, however it would need to change automatically with the layer height. if you get you layer height at 0.1mm then it should change to 0.1mm (if you want you can then change this). Otherwise people may forget that their layer height of 0.1mm will not even begin to touch the p...

I think you are addressing the wrong problem here, to me the real problem is why your skirt is not adhearing to the bed even if it is under extruding. My print starts the skirt with nothing and then over about 20mm I start to see a very faint skirt which slowly starts to become more solid. What bed ...

Hello! I have a issue with the software. It is hard to describe, but the pictures will show what I mean. The failure in Simplify3D - one of the top layers is not going far enough over the infill - the result are gaps/holes: http://www.edokriegsmann.de/2.jpg This is something that also bothers me ab...

I asked this last week:

But no one else seemed to want it based on the lack of responses

I have had similar things happen, sometimes with a layer in the middle doing this. All times this was solved by tweaking the first layer settings (normally 150% and changed to 149%)

Can the developers consider the option to add absolute values for things like first layer extrusion width and height, and infill width etc... Currently I always prefer my first layer being 0.3mm but when I change the normal layer height this means I then need to work our what percentage I need to ap...
