What's up with Fill Angle?

I downloaded this:

https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/51462-expandable-steel-sheet-holder-mk-mini

It asks for fill angle to get set to 95 instead of 45.

What's up with that?

Don’t trust forum advice.

RE: What's up with Fill Angle?

The recommendation for printing those parts is to rotate them by 50 degrees to get them to fit on the printer.  With the parts rotated, the fill runs almost down the length of the part.  Changing the fill angle by adding 50+45=95 give a better fill pattern.  I'm assuming that it will make the part stronger continuing to have the fill pattern going 45 degrees to the length of the part.
