Cura infill setting at height.

[ukracer]

I am looking to try and stop cura using infill at a certain height as the clips keep snapping.



As you can see its just those clips I need to print without infill. But I cant remember how to do it in cura.

Yes I think I did. I set another print off just a temp measure this afternoon and that is definately that orientation.

Which way would you print it.

Printing with the back vertical feature(red line) on the bed would increase the strength of the two tabs but would then decrease the strength of the single part circled yellow

For tricky box like prints, I print at 45 degrees. Also check intended purpose for design considerations. These sorts of parts are often optimised for injection moulding or other production process and can/should be tweaked for FDM.

45 degrees on what planes?
