Background:
I am making a gridfinity container and this layer is the first layer that joins the 4 quadrants of the 2x2 grid. My model is say 5 gridfinity units in height and I am inserting an object (a1 nozzle) that I have no vertical space to play with (event at 0.2mm layer height, I could spare maybe one 0.2mm layer at the expense of stacking at one corner lifting one layer and being a bit spongy of the box above hitting the silicone nozzle sock - the two rectangular bits either side. I’d rather not change the model to 6 gridfinity units high (each one add 7mm) if I can get around.
What I see with the above settings - the blue line falls away leaving a gap where the blue line is
Is there a way to change the blue “overhang wall” line cutting across the red “top surface” to be what should have been red top surface like all the lines adjacent. Looks like a bug favouring the overhang wall. I set the bridge angle at 45 degree because of the joining of the 4 quadrants of the 2x2 is like a plus sign, so that corrects the bridging but doesn’t remove the spurious overhang wall.
Current options are - fix being better than the work arounds I can think of.
- Find a fix - raised this post
- Live with the gap.
- Add an extra layer - if I stack a gridfinity container on top, it might sit with a 0.2mm gap.
- Add and extra 7mm gridfinity height unit that isn’t really needed.
- Add supports - but would probably just pull out that one layer joining the quadrant where that blue overhang wall is

EDIT: I think I may have a workaround, saw another post that was sort of similar and it suggested turning off only one wall on top surfaces and that changed the blue overhang wall line to a paler blue “bridge”. Still would be nicer for it to be the red top surface instead of breaking up the surface pattern.
Another workaround is to use classic rather than arachne.
