Crowning is disabled when the infill is set to 0% #3244

Hello.

I see a problem when the infill is set to 0%. The crowning seems to be off as well, which leaves gaps in the shell. If I set the infill to 1%, the crowns are generated, but also some infill as well.

Thanks, Vojtech

I think that by crowning you're referring to gap fill. In many cases it's not easy to define the demarcation line between what is gap fill and what is normal infill. Such a distinction turns out to be arbitrary, and relying on the technical implementation is meaningful in many cases. In both cases, we're talking about infill.

You may want to share test cases to discuss.
