No .3(2) layer height with .4 nozzle?

Upgraded to the 3.5 and I'm slicing some quick accessories for a pressure washer and I noticed the .3 layer height is not an option with the .4 nozzle. I used this a lot on my MK3s setup. I noticed it is an option if I select the .6 nozzle and while the print time is 1/2 I use the .4 nozzle far more often for other detail work. Was this layer height purposefully left off of the .4 nozzle options and if so why??

It's because they are all input shaper profiles. Presumable, 0.3 mm is too much to push enough filament through reliably at those speeds. I guess you could try setting it manually to 0.3 and see how it goes.

Thanks! I had run into that explanation a while after posting that on Reddit but wasn't sure it was accurate. I'm curious idea as to why IS moves to a .32mm from .3mm?

I have my 0.28 (a magic number as explained by Filament Friday) and not a 0.3.

I am aware that now with high speed print, there is no time for the filament to melt and give the correct flow rate for a high speed print on 0.28 heigh, so my profile just print that layer heigh a little slowly in speed. 😉
