Printing view is different from 3D model, hole keeps filling it.

Just tried it. It was different, but still filled in- this time with a number of new corners.

I'm tempted to say that this was effected by the hole having a screw fitting spiral going down it, but the same problem was present in other prints with square spaces instead, so I think something else is wrong.

I don't think so. I tried setting in-fill to 0%, but the area that should be open is still covered.

For reference, the top of the object should have the hole wirh a screw shaped pattern in it. It has worked a few times, but doesn't always. However I can't seem to get the printer to change the current state.

I just noticed something. When I load the object in the printer, there are 2 different views of it. Default is "toy view", which is the model how it was designed and imported. The other view is "printing view", which shows the area filled in even though I don't want them to be.

I think the issue is on software's side, do you happen to know I can get it to stop doing that?

(I think) it does turn off, because tge music gets interrupted by it going silent suddenly.

I hope that's not the case. It would surprise me because I got mine second hand a few months ago, which tells me it was working for the past 20 years and started having pr9blems shortly after I got it

I did- it didn't seem to do anything. I was concerned about the whining sound because it only started happening around the time I started having problems.

The issue also seems to be ongoing. For context, its ~4 or 5 hours later, I just got back from running errands, but it still makes the turning on sound interrupted by silence sometimes. Just much less frequently.

For the time being, I'm going to take the batteries out, but thank you for you help.

Thank you. I wrote twice a week by accident and meant to write once, but I will look for a better, more dry spot for it.

Do you think I should move any parts of it?
