Was toying around with printing clear stuff and an issue I ran into was that 'solid infill' was generated if I defined a top or bottom layer count. The reason this is an issue is that I cant seem to control the pattern of this 'solid infill' to match the defined layer patterns of such as 'alligned rectilinear' or 'concentric', it will always print as a woven rectilinear. No settings I messed with got rid of the 'solid infill'. So having a model that is 100% infill, I set the top and bottom layers to zero and I suddenly dont have any generated woven 'solid infill', all the infill follow my pattern settings. The issue is that with this set, ironing doesn't recognize any 'top layer' so I cannot effectively iron. The only option I have is 'iron all solid surfaces' which is far from ideal as it essentially irons every layer. I would either like an option to turn on 'solid infill generation', an option to customize 'solid infill pattern', or for the slicer to recognize 100% solid infill "top" layers. Thank you.
Project file & How to reproduce
Create a project with an stl, say a cube that is 20mm tall.
Set infill density to 100%,
Set the perimeters to 1
Set the fill pattern to "aligned rectilinear" or "concentric".
check for top an bottom layers to have a value greater that zero. for ease choose 1.
slice.
preview the slicing layers, note that after bottom layer and before top layer there is a (default ui) purple generated "solid infill" that does not align with the fill pattern. Note ability to iron top surface.
Go back and set top and bottom layers to zero.
