I am running Cura 2.5.0 and have the preference of "Automatically drop models to the build plate" turned on.
I have a file with 4 separate STL models in a single file, but all of them are aligned to the same base plane.
When I enable supports, Cura places 4 layers of supports under all of the models. To fix this, I turned off supports, and modified the file to put my own supports in the CAD drawing.
When I brought that file into Cura, it aligns my model such that about 10 layers are under the build plate.
I have to go into Preferences, and turn the Auto Drop setting off, then move the model by hand, and hope I have the bottom correctly aligned with the build plate.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a problem in the software?
