Modify bed and extruder pre-heat time ?

As said in the subject line, I would like to modify this, but in the Starting script, I only have actions starting after G28, while heating is done before. So where can I access these settings to modify them ?

Thanks for your help.

You can put the preheating commands in your starting script, and then the software knows not to add those commands beforehand.

For example you could put this for your starting script:

G28 ; home axes
M109 S[extruder0_temperature] T0 ; for for extruder to preheat

If you use that script, you will see that S3D no longer adds its own M104/M109 commands at the top of the file, since it knows you are handling those commands manually in the starting script.

Did not know this. Thanks, I'll try it.
