I get strange outlines with this object and find no issues in settings to remove this.
Any hints?

And this is how it looks when sliced with cura....:

Version 1.0.RC1,1.0.RC2 and 1.0.RC3 all create the same image as the upper displayed.

Version 9.10b looks better except for infill :-( , and is shown below:

9_10b

I can confirm this with 1.0.0RC2 and 1.0.0RC3. Changing default extrusion width to smaller makes it slightly better, but not good.

I set my nozzle size to 0.2 mm (default 0.4 mm), and the slicing looks ok.

Heh, how ugly. Thank you for reporting it and providing detailed information. I'm fixing this asap.

i did some further testing with 1.0.0RC3.
My nozzle is 0.35mm and tests sofar has been made with extrusion width fixed at 0.5.
However I tried to change that and made a test with extrusionwidth= nozzle size (0.35) and proble somehow disappeared except for some blistering:
0_35-extrw

I then tried the other way and made extrusion width larger than nozzle and the 0.5 used before and i started with extrusion width 0.6mm ( all layerheight 0.2) and I assume that is a legal value?
look what happened (flying carpet?)
0_6-extrw

Could this be a limit to extrusion width inside the object which is not tested for?
To clarify further I have attached a screenshot of a layer cut of the teeth (Layer 25) extrusion width 0.35 and 05.

First 0.35mm (Nozzle width)

0 35-extrw_layer25

And 0.5:

0 5-extrw_layer25

From all your views - Have you sliced and exported to svg yet? Granted your gcode results do look bad. I'm wondering what is the cross section view of the real physical object? [I do not code - I am following your requests for a fix and curious.]

Well, this is caused by wrong triggering of the thin wall code. The shape and thickness of the object's teeth generate an edge situation when using perimeter extrusion width = 0.5mm. Basically, when you want to fit a larger tool in a narrow shape you lose some accuracy of the shape since corners will be cut out and so on. Slic3r checks what's left and tries to make single walls using the medial axis code. This shouldn't happen in this situation, and I'm working carefully on a meaningful and robust fix to this logic.
In the mean time, I already isolated this report in a regression test to be added to the test suite. Thank you @justmyopinion for reporting it.

Thankyou for trying to make a fix on this instant.
I tried to verify your corrections but failed.
I downloaded stable branch and compiled, but here error was still present so maybe it was not corrected here yet?
i then downloaded master branch and compiled. tests reported 6 errors in perimeters and in one in thin walls (teeth test?) i tried to run SLIC3R anyway but it came out reporting errors during load and crashed when trying to slice the above project again. Do i have to be more patient with this?
