Inflate Raft & Prime Gap

Post by inventabuild »

I don't understand why my Skirt is less than 1 mm wide when I have the Inflate Raft & Prime Gap set to 2? The pop up note say "Inflate the raft (or skirt) by this many [mm] in all directions to stick better to the bed", but that is not happening.

I also don't understand why no slicers allow for a brim on a skirt when they allow for a brim on a part. As far as I know the whole point of a brim is to keep the part on the bed, but skirts tend to have thin wall footprints making them also very prone to release from the bed for long prints. Brim for the part, but not the skirt just doesn't make sense to me.
