An Error Message in Prusa Slicer Print area

so, I3 MK3S says print area is 8.3 by 8.3 inches.  I put in part 8.12 in diameter which was verified by slicer.   Error message said "a tool path outside the print area was detected".  What exactly am I missing...  Is the print area less than 8.3 inches?????   to fix do I have to cut/slice the part.

thanks for any help.   New to all this ....Alan

in the case of the previous message you needed to wait until I woke up. -(i don't know what other moderators are doing today)

the moderators are volunteers and today is Bank holiday Monday in the UK, it's 13 minutes past 9am. and your post has been approved for several minutes. 

to the best of my knowledge the mk3 build plate is slightly less than 8.3 inches by slightly more than 9.8 inches. but like the Prusa Printer, I work in millimetres. 

have you turned off the skirt? that typically makes a toolpath, outside the model print  area.
