Change Scale in Process Settings?

I have a Delta printer that is off by 1.5% in the X and Y dimensions. I know I can correct this in the tool bar settings. However, sometimes I forget to do this as I also have another printer that is perfect. Is there a way to do it in the Edit Process Settings so it is permanent?

Thanks for your question! You can currently use the model import actions options to scale all models you import by a certain percentage. I've moved this to feature requests as it's currently not possible to only do this on a printer by printer basis.

Not sure if asked before but it would be excellent if I could assign a scale factor to different profiles to account for material shrinkage rates instead of having to do it each time I import a model.

Indeed I have been looking for a scale factor. In Skeinforge I scale ABS by 1.0057 because that is how much my ABS shrinks when it cools down from bed temperature to room temperature. I got to this figure on a machine with ball screw axes so the positioning is spot on but objects come out about 0.6% too small. This is significant when you print something 200mm long.

Shrinkage compensation for ABS is very necessary. Moreover, a different scale factor for different materials. The horizontal size compensation available in the process settings is not suitable for this, since the size changes relatively.
