Incorrect Per-Layer Fan Control

I created a process by adding the following lines at the Per-Layer Fan Control of the cooling section.

Layer 1 Fan Speed 0
Layer 6 Fan Speed 50
Layer 40 Fan Speed 0

The fan turned on at layer 6 as instructed, but instead of turning of at layer 40, the M code was placed at Layer 7. So basically the fan was on for just 1 layer.

I really liked this option, but not working. And I am very surprised to see this kind of bugs at a 2.0.1 version... nobody noticed before?

Regards.

Re: Incorrect Per-Layer Fan Control

Yes, I noticed the same thing and started a thread about it earlier:

I normally like the bed fan to be off until layer 14 to avoid warping but it was always turning on for layer 2. I hope it gets fixed for the next release.
