Top layer filled in around embedded logo

How do I get rid of the lines surrounding the logo? The panel is set to have no top/bottom layers and 15% infill for honeycomb. The logo is set with 4 top / 7 bottom layers. I can’t NOT get some extra lines filled in on the panel portion around the logo. They’re easy to cut out, but I’d rather not do it.

Side note, if I print the panel in black and leave the logo the same colors, the slicer doesn’t show the same issues around the logo - it’s clean.

Of course, after posting, I think I got it. Detect thin walls seems to have done the trick. Posting solution in case anyone else is befuddled.

Thinks like logos or raised text can be a pain…
Great you found the relationship between thin wall settings and print results to help.

You case is a bit different to the usual logo stuff thanks to only using infill around it but no top or bottom layers.
Based on a different problem I encounter every now and then I might have a workaround that is worth considering:

For me it is usually holes for threads or other inserts, same issue though, just that I do it for extra strength.
I will reduce it the relevant bits…
Do TWO files.
One for the actual model the other for just the logo.
If you export them from your design app they will have the coordinates preserved.
Anyway, the printer will see it as one file containing multiple models.
This way you set the print parameters for the model and your logo fully individual :wink:
You can also change the placement easily in Studio as a bonus so to say.
Main benefit is that you can do the logo with much finer print settings than the rest if you define both in the object section, rather than sticking to global settings.

Like this, just as an example, I print large parts with 0.2 or even 0.24 layers and good infill quickly while things like threaded holes are printed in 0.1 layers or even 0.08.
Giving a good enough part while the vital bits are as good as the printer allows for.
