Topic: Slic3r used in RH how to clear raft selection back to zero

seems all of us have this issue with some settings like Raft not wanting to reset to zero once it is set to even 1 layer.
anyone have a method to do this without clearing cache, restarting RH, re-saving setting like 20 times to get it done? if at all?

I notice even if last profile used had it set then changing to different proflie with no raft set it auto sets to 1 layer at least even without me changing it from zero in that profile. I dont want raft etc on every profile thats why I saved several dif profiles in first place. AARRGGHH! maybe Slic3r should be called Slacker.

Solidoodle 2 with Deluxe kit cover & glass bed with heater. and 2nd board SD2 used not 3rd and alum platform not installed yet still wood. also need cooling fan installed to board. use Repetier Host couple vers. Slic3r also have all free ware STL programs

Re: Slic3r used in RH how to clear raft selection back to zero

I had the same issue with changing "infill every x" layers...once I set to 2 or 3, I could not get it back to 1 unless I changed some other parameter like % infill...seems to be fine now, though...

SD2 - Stock - Enclosure - Heated Bed - Glass Plate - Auto Fire Extinguisher
Ord Bot Hadron - RAMPS 1.4 - Bulldog XL - E3D v6 - 10" x 10" PCB Heated Build w/SSR - Glass Plate
Thanks for All of Your Help!

Re: Slic3r used in RH how to clear raft selection back to zero

It was a bug in Slic3r. Went away when I updated to the latest version.

Edit: oh yeah. Usually the way I fixed this with the older version was to bump the spinner control up two notches, save, and then bump it to the value you want using up/down. Older versions of slic3r seem to have issue with entering the values in by hand. Fixed in the latest version.
