I have a problem, every solid infill that slic3r produces, produces it as bridging, with its options. I dont know why. Please help.

The profile used on the config.ini is "cosas detalladas"

Purple,
I looked at your ini file... but really what is needed is more description of the problem, info about your machine and filament, clear photos etc.

Kindly see here for the kinds of things we need. That will save us from asking 1000 questions.

Thanks

IMO the first solid layer over sparse (<25%) infill should be printed with bridging parameters, because it is bridging over fairly large gaps between the infill. I often have the opposite problem, in that I cannot set my slicing firmware to treat the first solid top layer as a bridge, but I would like to!

I agree with Dave in this one - the first solid layer SHOULD be a bridge. However, my observation is that slic3r does this. At least when I am printing with PLA, my fan comes on - which is part of my bridging behavior.
Solid layers on top of this should NOT be bridged. The OP didn't say if there was a difference between the first and subsequent solid layers.

My problem is that slicer treats EVERY solid layer as a bridge, it overlays the infill parameters and prints it with the brigding configurations, what ussually is a dissaster, because pieces are so light and weak

PurpleSensation,
Unfortunately your description is not enough for us to tell what is happening.
Really, see my post above for the kinds of info we need.
