CURA-11249 travel up with fractional layer #2057

Closed wawanbreton closed 3 months ago

wawanbreton commented 3 months ago

Add a small vertical travel move when starting to print/travel along some lines that have a different Z that the previous. This allows performing those lines fully horizontally instead of moving along Z axis while moving.

This fixes a case where it was possible that the nozzle would go through printed material from the model when also printing supports with fractional layer height. It also improves the first printed segment of a fractional layer line which was previous starting at full layer height and moving down while extruding.
