The default Slice Behavior is "Positive Fill" and this is now th fourth or fifth time that method failed. I switched to Alternating fill each time which cured the problem. Nothing like this ever happened under V4. This most recent occurance was particularly costly to us and I'm wondering i...

Hi - Factory file attached where a very simple, very tiny part (12.7 mm height) reports 14037 layers - 0.30 per layer. The part layering look correct in the rendering and the gcode file "looks" to be correct. But I cannot run the layer by layer preview. I shut down to computer and ran anot...
