When printing a cube on my 3d-printer the result is not as perfectly square, as it should be. Reason: the mechanical angle between the printers x- and y-axis is about 89.5°, and the angle between x- and z-axis is a bit more than 90°. In addition the length of the x-edge of the cube is maybe 0.5% lon...

No I didn't get an answer yet, but I'm still interested to know a solution.

I'm having troubles with proper bonding of infill and top solid layers. The missing bond makes the printed parts less strong! There is a nice option, which controls the overlap percentage between infill and outline. Unfortunately this parameter seems only to control the overlap with perimeter lines,...

It's an okay idea, but I know a lot of people have different opinions about how a setting should be modified. For example, some people want to set all of their speed values based on the machine they are using. Others prefer to have speed controlled based on the material, and there's also those that...

Please add "horizontal size compensation" as option for the first layer. You can already do this right now. I use it quite frequently. You just setup 2 processes, one for the first layer only, and the second one for the remainder of the part. Then you set the "horizontal size compens...

While each individual parameter from the fff-settings is very useful, I always get lost in switching tabs and extruders. I'm changing individual advanced parameters instead of adjusting the (simple) auto-configure buttons. The reason, why I'm not using these buttons is the badly visible mix of param...

Please add "horizontal size compensation" as option for the first layer. Of course one could say, the print bed is not well levelled, but if I properly level the hight, the first layer adhesion is MUCH worse, because the contact area on the build-plate is maybe only 50%. For a 100% contact...

I've created a model with Fusion 360, and it seems that Simplify3D does a slicing mistake. The model has a few holes, and S3D fills these wrongly with a single layer thick bridge. The Makerbot Slicer and Cura don't have an issue - they also don't report an error. I also checked with Blender, if the ...
