[ADDED] Finish all shells before move.

Has anybody found a way to force Simplify to finish all shells before moving to next perimeter?

try out the islands without optimization setting. i get better prints without optimization and it's like 1% extra time

Hi chath

I use that setting, but it only works when there is "islands" in the print.
I would like to control it in all situations.

I would love to see the perimeters for the part being printed be completed before moving on to other parts.

Saving time and I bet better quality as well.

Hi Michael,

I just read, we both mean the same.
I am also of the opinion that the quality of the pressure would be significantly improved since the nozzle after each round moves diagonally across the object, creating voids. These could save this traversing whereby the entire pressure period would shorten.

This is really a problem with Bowden system having to perform hundred retracts per layer. It is really painful to watch the nozzle move 200mm because the software decided it needed to extrude a few mm of plastic on the opposite side of print and come right back.

omg !!! this is so important !!! I was printing a lot of extruded text,
and the slicer made an unbelievable amount of unnecessary moves,
it would be much faster and the letters perimeters would be so much
cleaner if the head didn't make so many moves to draw parts of many
other letters before even finishing the first letter....
