<h4>New scarf seam settings for a less prominent Z seam</h4>
2+
<p>Three new experimental settings have been added for turning your Z seam into a scarf seam. A scarf seam is created by varying the flow rate at the start and end of a line to merge the seam together, reducing the prominent bump of a traditional seam. It is named after the scarf joint used in woodworking. The settings are Scarf Seam Length, Scarf Seam Start Height, and Scarf Seam Split Distance</p>

<h4>More reliable printing over sparse infill</h4>
2+
<p>A new setting has been added called "Extra Infill Lines To Support Skins" that can be used to add additional lines within infill to support the skin layers above. This, alongside some other small improvements, can make printing using low infill percentages much easier and more reliable. </p>
