Missing setting for auto bed levelling

Posted · Missing setting for auto bed levelling

Hi

 

I use auto bed levelling by calling G29 in my "start G code" and it works like a charm.

I have a 300 x 300 bed and I probe 6 x 6, in other word it is 36 times, that the Z axe will move over the same 

part of the lead screw, for every print I do, this will over time, mean wear and tear on that part of the lead screw,

after all it is just brass on stainless steel in most cases. 

My suggestion is that Cure create the G29 command so that only the area that is used for printing is probed.

 

To extra printer settings is needed:

Use Auto Bed Levelling 

Grid Size For Bed Levelling

 

G29 have a lot of extra parameters so I believe it's already possible.

 

Hope You will consider.

 

Thanks for a great slicer.

Best regards

Asger

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
