Thanks, I'll try it. It still kinda defeats the purpose of parametric modelling when you have to do additional steps after you changed the parameters :)

CAD can represent continuous curves, .stl format only has flat polygons (triangles?), so they need to tesselate the curves somehow when exporting.
The defaults are such that on a pot for a plant I've printed you can see the "faces" of the cylinder - like on these pipes in Super Mario https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/4BUAAOSwj69ZdDw8/s-l400.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/4BUAAOSwj69ZdDw8/s-l400.jpg
To fix that I had to increase details, and to do that I had to select completely different task and go to configuration of some other (non-stl) format and change maximal angle error or sth like that. I don't remember but I remember it was far from obvious.
