Can't correctly set Ooze rate in 2.2

[dsegel]

It defaulted to 100mm/sec, which is obviously wrong, and it won't let me set it to anything finer than 0.1mm. I had it set to 20mm/minute in v2.1.2, which should be ~0.33mm/sec, but the closest I can get it 0.2 or 0.3, and when I save and go back it's been changed from 0.3mm/sec to 18mm/sec (0.1mm gets changed to 6mm).

since your using that feature and what it does exactly seems to be a mystery, is there anything you can share on how you feel it works? i have tried it a few times and it seemed like it just decreased flowrate. basically the same as turning down the extrusion multiplier. are you seeing the same effect?

[dsegel]

It apparently does nothing in this version. The GCode produced is identical no matter what the setting is, other than the comment at the top saying it's on or off and a value for it. No actual changes to the GCode itself.

did it make a difference in 2.1.2? its been a long time since i tried this feature but i seem to remember it cutting down the flow rate but i never did any checking of the gcode to confirm.

I thought it did for me, but I could never verify it because 2.1.2 didn't produce the same code every time you sliced. I have another post on this behavior - search for "deterministic". It seems to be fixed on 2.2.0.

I would expect it calculates the ooze amount on no-printing moves and ad that amount to the normal retracting setting, not that I know anything about that but that would make sense to me
BTW, first post here, hallo! - been doing a lot of reading on the forum and learned a lot from you guys, thank you!
