"IMPORTANT: min. 6 Wall loops"

Hi,
The S3D infill parameters are unfamiliar to me. The designer of the model I'm trying to print specifies "IMPORTANT: " min. 6 Wall loops " if the spring has infill pattern, it will not work".
But I can't translate that in terms of S3D parameter.
Could you help me ?
Thanks

Re: "IMPORTANT: min. 6 Wall loops"

I can partially answer to my own question. After asking the designer it appears that I have to find the right parameter to specify the "wall loops" :D Even if I'm not confident at all, setting the advanced parameter "Internal Thin wall type" to the value "allow single extrusion" can perhaps solve my problem.

Re: "IMPORTANT: min. 6 Wall loops"

When someone says "wall loops", I would have assumed they were talking about the number of perimeter outlines. That determines how many rings are created around the outside of the part. If you use a high enough number of perimeter outlines, you frequently won't get any infill at all for small parts, which is what I think the customer was requesting.
