I'm trying to print a GoPro mount that is sturdy and I cant get enough infill at the main transition to the mount. Even when I make infill 1 its really more like 70" eye balling it. Is there some setting I've got clicked that i dont realize? Shouldnt 100% infill be solid?
Thanks
S
Check the settings in your Printe Settings > Advanced options, the infill and solid infill values.

I do use 100% infill often,
but than pattern should not be honeycomb..... I think previous versions did not allow that, but currently I am not sure,
Try infill "1" and line pattern ?

Orca V4.4 rebuild to Ramps with Mk8 and E3D, as well as a Rostock Delta Mini and an OLO in backorder :-)

Ok I'm starting to get frustrated now that i cant figure it out. I've attached a screenshot of the fill settings and the result in the middle of the print as shown in pronterface. The first and last layers look and actually print 100%. I'm expoting g-code, using Windows Vista, Slic3r 1.0.0. Same result on any STL. I appreciate all suggestions.

Ehrmmm.... your infill density is at 0.7 (70%), also you should set your use "Solid Infill every:" to 1 just in case.
There's something odd there though, it looks like you don't have a text field to actually input the infill density? What version of Slic3r are you using?

Sorry for the confusion on the last post, I did play with the fill density at 70% but the pic shows it was clearly not near that. I attached one I ran at 1 and you can see the difference where the infill threshold is starting to affect the outer areas as they are separated from the main body.
Are you telling me that the print settings tab should have more options? I have been using Slic3r since 060. Maybe i have some old code in my ini?

I think it would be a good idea to try a different version of Slic3r to make sure it's not a bug related to the one you are using. Version 1.0.0 seems to work OK (I just sliced a thing with 100% and it works), don't use 1.1.0 there's a bug that makes the infil too thin regardless of the density you set.

I made a lot of changes in Slicer config that had no impact. Then I realized I had not saved my changes. ( I see that yours were not saved but I assume that you were just taking screen shots.) I had the same problem with Reptier host which allows you to choose separate Slic3r profiles for the printer, filament and extruder. I made changes in Slic3r config, but ignored selecting the profiles in Repetier. Drove me crazy. I am sure you are past the newbie problems. But just in case...
