Hello,

I would like that the within the Machine control panel >Jog controls that the Z+ and Z_ button had a resolution of 0.01 instead of 0.1.
In that way you can "save"a first layer when you see that is something wrong.
Sometimes during a print I change the position of the Z axis but 0.1 can be to much.
Or an extra button with a resolution of 0.01?

You could go setup a macro (Tools > Firmware Configuration)

G91
G1 Z0.01 F1800
G90

That will jog the Z-axis up by 0.01mm. Remember, that you need to actually export the new firmware configuration by clicking the Export button in the top right. Then you can load that configuration in your process settings (see this video for more info: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYPUAqT4UyI)
