Well, i think the title of this post should be rephrased: "Attention when using branch Marlin_UM_HeatedBedUpgrade for custom heated bed" Nevertheless i think it would be a good idea to have some explicit comments about the values for DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT in Configuration.h

Indeed i use a non UM heated bed unsing a temperature sensor with 100kOhm Figuring out the Temperature sensor was quite straight forward and easy to find in the configuration file. Why would a heated bed change the Z stepping resolution? Well, maybe UMs heated bed comes with a new rod... i dont know. anyway, i think at least some comments in Configuration.h would nice to avoid that people use wrong values for the z-axis. a wrong value there can harm the machine...

Hello. Upgrading my ultimaker with a heated bed made me use branch Marlin_UM_HeatedBedUpgrade. After some bad (z-compressed) prints i figured out the problem: looking into Configuration.h where DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT is defined i find the following: #define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT {78.7402,78.7402,200.0,760*1.1} steps per unit for z-axis: 200 while in branch "Marlin_v1" i find a different value for the z-axis: 200.0*8/3 which explains the "compressed" prints and my bent heated aluminium bed... changing that value solved the problem. The same value for the z-axis (200) is to find in branch Marlin_UM_Original_Plus. is this intentional or just simply a mistake? inx

appended Underscores in "The Unarchiver" are a known problem in Version 3.3 http://code.google.com/p/theunarchiver/ ... %20Summary should be fixed in the next update of that app.

i was wondering about these underscores... but left them on. just unpacked the package osx64-Cura-12.08.tar.gz again using "The unarchiver version 3.3", browsing to the same folder shows me the files with underscores... unpacked them via command-line and the underlines are not there... so "The Unarchiver" did manipulate the files?! Tried again unzipping the tar.gz in the command-line first, and then using "The unarchiver" with the left over .tar file. This did work. weird. Using the freshly unpacked archive without underscores worked. Thanks!!

Yes.
