is Delta size setup working correctly?

Is this normal? My delta (Anytcubic Predator) can print a 370mm diamter circle but only a 260x260mm square. Ok, fine.

In Simplify3D, I set it for delta and 370mm. I then dropped in a 370mm part, and it only filled a small fraction of the build plate. I had to change Simplify to a 260mm build area to show the 370mm.

That doesn't seem like how it should work.

See enclosed images - the part is 360mm diameter:

This is a bug report now.

While it was intentional for them to make the setup be from the size of the max inscribed rectangle, if a part is larger that that, but smaller than the max circle of the delta, S3D will say that the part is too large to auto place.

Thanks for your report of this issue. I've documented it for our development team to test and evaluate.
