Typically attaching the factory file will get you more help. There is just no way to see the problem from pictures.

Go to the advanced tab and deselect 'merge all outlines into single model'.

Thank you very much. I would have never thought of that. I assumed when you installed it, those boxes would be correct for default printing. But: Then again I know what it means to ass u me. :)

Where can I find the description of what each of those check boxes really do in Simplify3D?

Read the thread! It contains a list of other threads that contain explanations for every setting on every tab of the profile.

The answer to the question "Where can I find the description of what each of those check boxes really do in Simplify3D?" is in one of the threads. You just have to look for it.

There is no list in that thread. Maybe you pasted the wrong link :)
