What happened to the "resolution" setting when exporting STL files

[Joshua_The_Jeweler]

I haven’t exported a lot of files for printing and I just tried to export a ring today and suddenly the STL resolution is terrible. There used to be a “resolution” setting in the export dialogue if I remember correctly but I can’t find it anymore. I have no idea which settings to change now to get a more precise model. I’m printing jewelry on an 8k printer so the resolution needs to be high. What do I need to change for higher precision exports?

Where can I find an explanation of these export settings?

Here’s the most recent stl I exported and the file I exported from.

test ring.3dm.stl (3.4 MB)

test ring.3dm (2.4 MB)

As per usual I figure it out just after asking for help. Apparently the “maximum edge to surface distance” setting was the culprit. I set that to my printer’s layer height and got a much cleaner result (larger file too, can’t upload it here for reference but I’ll add a screenshot). I hope this saves someone a little time down the road. If there’s any other suggestions for clean stl files feel free to share.
