Stripe hatching is different for repeated parts

[pellinr]

In my current build job, I would like to have the same part several times with a stripe hatching that has the gap in the middle of the part and separates it into two equal parts (circled red below). I was not able to achieve this for single parts by playing with the width of the stripe, as the gap seems to appear randomly but never in the middle where I would like it.

If I generate the filling for all parts at once using the machine config file, the stripe hatching changes depending on the position of the part on the build plate. Is there a way to have the gap in the middle for all parts?

Thanks in advance!

Hello, @pellinr,

Welcome to the Netfabb forum!

There are currently no controls available to force a restart of hatching pattern to the individual parts. The only option  right now to achieve the alignment you seek is to make sure the spacing of the actual parts matches the interval of hatch length and gap.

Kind regards,

Steffen
