Noob user asks about tuning wizards

Hello!
Yesterday I tried the tuning wizards, but without much success.
#1 Temp tuning. It was OK, I had to change nothing (200°C for PLA)
#2 Flow. It was pretty suprising, but regarding the results of the printed test object I set my flow to 4,4-4,8 (orig. E3D V6 + Titan, direct drive)
#3 Preload. I run the test twice. At first with the recommended limits and second with zoomed up and down limit. I set my PreloadVE to 0,9728.
#4 Destring. Here I had some problems... The "help" says" I need 3 towers, but does not tell the distance of the objects. Nevermind, I found a model for this test in this forum.
And as no more info is provided I made the test with my own profile settings. Result: nothing. Normally I can print great quality objects with my settings, but the destring test was ugly as hell. Blobs and holes everywhere and horrible top layer.
While the test was printed I found out that:
- Jitter should be 0°
- Seam angle should show to 3 or 9 o'clock.
Am I right in these?
What destring options must be set for the destring test? Leave as it was before? Set to 0? Now the result is tha same in all layers.
Thank you in advance!
