Retraction Not Disabling

Hi All. 

Just trying to play around with my retraction settings and I've set the length to 0 which it says disables it but it hasn't. i've also tried 2mm and .5mm and there seems to be no change. Any ideas?

RE: Retraction Not Disabling

Just to be clear, you're setting Printer Settings->Extruder 1->Retraction->Length to 0? It will probably be easiest if you'd save your part & settings off in a 3MF project file, zip it up, and attach it to a reply here so we can see your settings.

I’ve just found the answer. Funny enough it’s in one of your older posts bobstro! I didn’t realise there was an over ride in the filament settings and for some reason I had that set to 7mm retraction.
