No ability to define 1 or 2 bottom layers

Hi!
Faced with a funny bug, I cannot define 1 or 2 bottom layers in the PrusaSlicer (2.7.0).

With 0 bottom layers in settings - 0 in slicer.

With 1 layer in settings - 3 in slicer.

With 2 layers - 3 in slicer

With 3 layers - 3 in slicer.

With 4 and more -  works as expected.

I can't reproduce this. Are you sure you don't have minimum shell thickness for Bottom set to a value that is at 3x layer height, which would explain what you're seeing?

But interesting that it still works for 0, minimum thickness ignored.

I'd almost lay money on the minimum shell thickness being the issue.  By default its 0.5mm isnt it, which would translate to 3 layers at 0.2 to bring it above 0.5.

Yes, you are right. Didn't face previously with this setting, always adjusted only number of layers, so was stumbled that it didn't work.
