Printing Individual Objects Does Not Take Skirt Height Into Account

[Merlwynd]

Version

PrusaSlicer 2.4.0

This issue may also apply to earlier versions of PrusaSlicer

Operating system type + version

Windows 10, latest version

3D printer brand / version + firmware version (if known)

Prusa MK3S, latest firmware

Behavior

When choosing to print objects individually, PrusaSlicer correctly checks for interference between objects and provides a warning if there is an issue. However, if also choosing to print a skirt with this option, PrusaSlicer prints the skirt around the outer circumference of all the objects on the sheet. If you choose a skirt layer height that is too tall, it will interfere with the first layers of the objects that are printed after the first object resulting in print failure…and PrusaSlicer will provide no warnings.
When choosing to print objects individually, the skirt should also be printed around each object individually. Then the skirt can be any height…even a draft shield. And the draft shield will be more effective, as it will be around each individual object on the sheet.

Very much the same…guess my search skills need improving as I did not come across those listed issues when I searched. I am surprised that this issue goes back in time multi years and Prusa has not fixed it?
