· Cura 4.7 dropping objects when it should not
If the build plate is empty then a model comes in with the X Y center of geometry at the center of the build plate. I'm not sure about how it handles the Z (but it isn't center of geometry).
You can move the model up or down by selecting the move tool and grabbing the Z grip arrow. You can also type the XYZ numbers into the boxes. Those options are not available if "Drop to build plate" is active.
If you are trying to set one model on top of another then type the Z value into the dialog box.

In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
