RE: Is there overlap between lines in the walls/perimeters ?

Found the answer, important to know for calibration of the extrusion multiplier:

I sometimes switch between Cura and Prusaslicer, does anyone know if Cura does this in the same way ?

Is there overlap between lines in the walls/perimeters ?

And I don't mean between infill and walls.

I'm trying to calibrate my printer (sidewinder X1), already did the e-steps procedure and printed a test cube.

This is my 'rough and fast' profile, I print with a .6 nozzle with a linewidth of 0.75 and a height of 0.5mm

I would expect the walls of the testcube being 2x0.75 = 1.5 mm (2 lines of 0.75mm)

But they are smaller. When I see this in the slicer:

Then my question is: is there some kind of overlap ? Because in the slicer is stated: 2 lines = 1.39mm and I expect 1.5mm ?

I can only find an overlap value between infill and walls, but not between lines in the walls or perimeters it self.

Hope the question is clear.
