Force no vertical gap between support and model?

Force no vertical gap between support and model?

Is there a way to ask Slic3r not to have any additional gap between the support and the model?

I'd take the extra time and tools needed to separate them.

In my (very limited) experience, the extra gap between the support and the 1st object layers makes that layer lower, and now not tightly bound to the layer above it.

I'm currently using the following "options for support material and raft":
Pattern: rectilinear
Pattern spacing: 2.5mm
Pattern angle: 0
Interface layers: 0
Interface pattern spacing: 0
Don't support bridges (checked).

Slicing for a 0.35mm head at 0.42 width and 0.15mm layer height, I get the following:
1st raft layer at: 0.2mm (first layer is set to 0.2mm)
2nd raft layer at: 0.35mm.
1st model layer at:0.88mm.

That's more than 0.5mm above the raft, and the material just doesn't stick and moves around.

Any settings I can tweak for this?

Same issue here, the first layer after the raft is drown too far and too fast sad smiley

Same here, I would love an added option to adjust the separation between the raft top interface layer and the bottom object layer.
