Hi all,

to my opinion there is a mistake in the manual levelling routine, which only appears, when someone levels manually the UM3 and has to read the description in german. 

During the second levelling round, leveling the first point , one is supposed to ajust the hight with the (back) screw under the buildplate. - To read the whole text in german one has to scroll with the scrollwheel. (the english text is shorter, so it doesn become obvious there ) - the printbed hight is (in this step only) sensitive to the scrollwheel! - That means , if a user reads what to do, he changes the hight of the printbed, which he had set in the first round. This leads to a wrong levelling.

 

Am I wrong?

 

Best - Yvonne

(Before anyone asks ... of course I work with the latest firmware. And I was able to check that on many  different UM3s)

      We're not only trying to always make Ultimaker Cura better with the usual new features and improvements we build, but we're also trying to make it more pleasant to operate. The interface was the focus for the upcoming release, from which we would already like to present you the first glance.

      "Back To The Future" using Generative Design & Investment Casting

      SteveCox3D posted a topic in Engineering,

      Designing for light-weight parts is becoming more important, and I’m a firm believer in the need to produce lighter weight, less over-engineered parts for the future. This is for sustainability reasons because we need to be using less raw materials and, in things like transportation, it impacts the energy usage of the product during it’s service life.
