issue with overhang angle support for cura 15.02.1 #1292

Open albertico931 opened 9 years ago

albertico931 commented 9 years ago

There is an issue in cura 15.02.1 when I change the overhange angle support to 90 degrees (Horizontal) it keeps making support in angled Area.

BagelOrb commented 9 years ago

The support system has been totally revised. However, setting the overhang angle to 90 will not be a good idea. The overhang angle delimits what can be printed without support. Setting it to horizontal would mean that horizontal can be printed, so no support should be generated.

However, the new Cura might crash because of the illogical value. Try setting it at 89 degree.

The bug still exists: it should either be impossible to enter 90 into that field, or part of the support generation should be skipped.
