Hi Guys,

When using more than 1 process I'm finding that the support layer is stopping 1 layer short of the top of the current process, this is causing problems with the next process.

using version 2.2.2 OS X

See screen shot of where two processes begin/end

Here is factory file incase I'm doing something completely wrong

If I'm looking at this correctly, the Top/Bottom Nylon processes are for the support material (second extruder) and the process, "Process 1" is for the model, right? I turned off support generation on the Process 1

In the "Bottom Nylon" process, in the support tab, set the Upper Vertical Separation Layers to 0, and in the "Top Nylon" process, set the Bottom Vertical Separation Layers in the support tab to 0.

Not the two processors were for the same extruder, I wanted to speed things up on the solid layers. So just one extruder for support and model, both nylon.

might be :
check edit process setting -> support tab -> seperation from part group -> upper / lower vertical separation..

Thanks for that will test the setting
