Posted (edited) · setting offset between the extruders

Hi everybody!

I'm currently modding my UMO with 2 nozzles using a similar concept used by the Ultimaker3 (retracting second extruder).

But I have some issue to set it properly on Cura.

I cannot set the gap between the nozzles (i just can set the Z offset between nozzle and the bed and it can be not different fron a nozzle to the other).

As you can image i need to tell to cura "change the hight of the bed when use the second extruder" and also "Go to a specific X/Y position before change extruder" to trig the second extruder to pop up.

How to do that?

P.S. If it gonna work I will post the project.

Thak you all!
