RE:

That's part of it, but unfortunately you need to go farther to establish a working solution.  

Swiss_Cheese Shown this early on. The Newer versions of slicer require more.

 

Keep moving forward.

I had that exact problem, i wanted to print a vase with 3 perimeters not as vase mode and those solid infills were generated.
Modifier with no top and bottom layer fixed it for me. Thank you so much.

But if you need bottom layers, all is lost?

No.  You use a modifier to set the 0 top and bottom, to the layers you want.  Either a modifier mesh or a layer modifier depending on your needs.

Ahhhh! It took me a minute (not at my computer) but I think I understand. Gotta try that later.

RE: How to get rid of solid infill

Okay. I'm playing with it now and what I did was bring the original model onto the build plate and set it to 1 perimeter, 0 top layers, and 0 bottom layers; next I bring in a modifier OF THE SAME MODEL and it lays in exactly in the OG model, but then on that modifier, I click the edit gear, select the layer option and then set the bottom layer to 10 and the top layer to 5 and one perimeter and bingo, bango, Bob's your uncle it works. Now I have one perimeter, no "SOLID INFILL" where I don't want it (but some solid infill that I can live with) and it is actually a couple grams lighter than what the designer says it should weigh (even with 20% lightning infill to support the top layer).

What I don't want:

What I get now

What I want to get:
