Cannot print cylinders as cylinders in 4.1

I am trying to print an object I have printed many time before, but 4.1 is changing the circular lines into its own design:

Those zig zags should not be there.

I tried going back to 4.0, but it prints perfect circles by accelerating and decelerating through each 90 degree arc of the circle. It does generate the cylinders as cylinders though. The jerky circle printing of 4.0 leaves anomalies on the surface and takes forever to print compared to using Cura or IdeaMaker -- or S3D when it is working properly.

Re: Cannot print cylinders as cylinders in 4.1

I have open your factory-file and exportet the saucer-STL. With yours settings I can reproduce the issue which is only concerned for the FirstLayer (the following layers are ok).

Imported to my own settings the STL -files is proper!
At the moment I have set the FirstLayer to 100% (0,20 mm) for LayerHeigth / 100% Width by setting an Z-Offset of -0.10 mm.
So the FirstLayer of your STL is proper concentric lined without any zick-zack.

It seams the reason for the occurance is to search in the settings of the first layer, perhaps the hole isn't absolutly concentric postioned.
