Problem with pause

Hi

 

I've added a pause in a print job to add some captive nut which works fine but the layer after the pause doesn't stick to the previous layer, probably because filament has oozed from the nozzle during the pause so when it starts printing again there isn't enough filament being extruded.  Tried adding GCODE before and after M601 command to extrude some filament but it either extrudes before the print head moves away from the print or after it moves back.  Any tips?

Ok so added a move and then extrusion before the M601 which seems to work ok but not a very good solution as I'll have to edit the gcode for every pause which will be annoying.  Can I change anything in slicer?

Still no good, only a partial layer after the pause which just snaps with little force.

In the end I just copied the whole layer before the pause and re-ran it after.
