Is there a setting for Bridge Infill in Prusa Slicer

When using supports, there is a layer printed above the support material. I believe it is called Bridge Infill.

For some reason, it doesn't print as "dense" as a normal layer (there is a slight gap between each printed line of filament) but yet it is part of the model, not part of the support. It doesn't get removed when the support material is removed. A screen print of the layer in question from the slicer is attached. 

Is there a way to eliminate the gaps or make them smaller? I looked through all of the advanced settings and couldn't find anything. 

Thanks

This doesn't feel right. Can you attach the project 3mf file so we can see STL and all your settings? Needs to be zip-compressed before the forum software allows you to attach it to a post here.

Turn Thick Bridges off in Layers and Perimeters. That should do it.

Looks like I need a version update to my PrusaSlicer to get that setting. I'll update and try it out. Thanks!

Thick Bridges is an advanced setting.  Be sure you are in advanced or expert mode.
