[ALREADY ADDED]Option for Wipe on inner shell

An option to wipe the nozzle on an inside shell would be awesome as wiping the nozzle on the outermost shell (when printing inside out) can leave some artifacts.

This could also be useful for the "Movement Behavior" setting where the head will detour, but it follows the outer most shell. Having this detour done on an inside shell could prevent unwanted artifacts.

  • turn "wipe" on
  • turn off "Only wipe for outer-most perimeters"
  • set "Outline direction" to "Outside-In"

It would be nice to just have a checkbox that says "Wipe to Infill" and have it do that stuff for us. :)

Re: [ALREADY ADDED]Option for Wipe on inner shell

I'm sorry but this workaround is not the same. People might want to still print inside perimeters first, and finish with outer perimeter, but wipe in the inside nonetheless. I don't know why this is not default behavior too. Wiping on the outside can lead to the wiped material being visible as blobs or streaks.

This is still a valid feature request in my opinion.
