Re: Missing Layers After Slicing ~ v5.1.1

I tried the region repair mode I recommended above and it sliced the file fine on my end. Can you confirm if you already tried that suggestion? Alternating fill worked fine for me, which is usually the first one we recommend trying for stubborn parts if positive fill didn't work. Yes, that works. T...

Re: Missing Layers After Slicing ~ v5.1.1

I imported the models into Simplify3D V4.1.2 and have been experimenting there. So far, the problem cannot be replicated. This is looking more and more like a bug introduced into Simply3D V5.0 and above. Just moving a single model around the print bed and rotating it can change how many layers are m...

Re: Missing Layers After Slicing ~ v5.1.1

Can you share a factory file for the print (File > Save Factory File As)? Hard to give suggestions without being able to experiment with the actual model. Also, if you haven't seen it, there's already a good tutorial on our site that explains the best practices for working with problematic models: ...

Re: Missing Layers After Slicing ~ v5.1.1

New development.... This issue seems to be related to part placement. Here's a recent test I did: 1. I removed all other parts except one that had a single missing layer line. 2. Resliced. 3. Still had missing layer line in same exact spot. 4. Clicked center and arrange. 5. Resliced. 6. Missing laye...

Missing Layers After Slicing ~ v5.1.1

I have four parts on the print bed in SImplify3D... when slicing, I can see missing layer lines in the previewer. What's even stranger is that the missing layer lines.... > are not always in the same part. > are not always at the same height in the same part. > are not always present. Sometimes, the...

Adaptive Layer Heights ~ Ability to Specify Top Layer Heights

It would be beneficial to specify the top layer heights when using Adaptive Layer Heights. The issue is that when using bigger layer heights, the top layers that bridge across the infill don't look as nice. It almost looks as if it's not able to bridge across the infill lines as well. It may just be...
