Re: Feature request: First Layer

Yeah, I requested this a year ago too.

viewtopic.php?f=23&t=5513&p=23861#p23861

It is so annoying having to calculate the layer height into a percentage, so it will stay the height I know works perfectly every time.

Re: Centering of parts

If you want it to arrange multiple parts together like that, you just need go group them first. So move then into whatever arrangement you want, then do Ctrl+A to select all 4 of the parts and Ctrl+G to group them. Then when you click center and arrange, they will stay locked relative to one anothe...

Firmware configuration updated by process

I am not sure if I am doing this wrong, or if it is a problem with the software... but with a Wanhao Duplicator 4S I got access to, I need to change the steps/mm a bit, after searching on the forum, I found that I could get around the problem with wrong sized parts, by going into Firmware Configurat...

Re: Centering of parts

I am not sure we are talking about the same thing, what I would like to see, the boundingbox of all the items always being centered. To show how Slic3r handle that compared to Simplify 3D, I made a little video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gM9--ZA1V84 In Slic3r it always keeps them centered on t...

Option to change first layer height to mm

I am playing around a lot with different layer heights when printing vases, and the first layer in percentage is really starting to annoy me. When the first layer is 0.2mm, it is perfect, but I go from layers between 0.05mm and 0.4mm, and I have to calculate how many percentage I should set first la...

Centering of parts

I only had Simplify3D for a few days, but I constantly find myself adjusting the parts so they are in the center of the build plate. Up until now, I have used Slic3r, and when you put multiple parts on the plate, it finds the outer position of all the parts, and centers them all on the plate. That w...
