Bridge settings are applied to the entire layer, if there's a steep overhang. #16

Whenever a layer contains an overhang that is > 45 degrees, the entire layer is printed as though it were a bridge. If you are using a fairly low bridge flow rate, in order to create tight bridges (.4, for example), the entire layer is printed with .4 flow rate, resulting in a visible indentation at the surface of the object.

Thats normal and thats why you should rather play with feed than flowrate... If you have real bad bridges you are probably using very off extrusion values that will print right on easy parts but fail in critical ones...
