Vase mode seam
Hey,
is it even possible to print a vase in S3D without a seam on the vase surface? Never able to print at least one vase without it in S3D. Had to use Slic3r for the vases, and I am not happy with that at all.

New slicer version - old bugs. Simplify3D 4.0 
Re: Vase mode seam
I found, that the Slic3r have the same seam on the models. But the Cura is not. In the Cura you have option to fix it:
Re: Vase mode seam
I dont understand this. There whould be no seam at all in vase mode as z moves continously.. OR?

Please humour me......and try using the attached stl file and compare with the existing one. You may need to scale by a factor of 100 to get it the same size as the original!

Re: Vase mode seam
Thats no Problem. Sliced with S3D v4 and your "magic". Still the same. It is the same problem I already mentioned here: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=7730&start=20#p33416dkightley wrote:Please humour me......and try using the attached stl file and compare with the existing one.

Re: Vase mode seam
Sorry, my fault, I fixed model orientation and scale.
I did many tests with different models, and this bug is visible on most of them.

Re: Vase mode seam
And more:
It is possible to make layer height very small and then the seam is almost not noticible. But if you need to print vase without the seam at all - use Cura, while we have no solution for it in S3D.
