Nozzle Purge Settings with Glass Corner Mounts

The starting gcode purge settings were fine until I added a glass bed and corner mounts/clips to hold it in place. The front right one is in the way of the purge now so it just globs onto it and when it goes to print sometimes some is sticking to it. Anyone have settings I could use who are also using glass corner mounts so it purges in a different location, maybe just 2 or 3 inches back? Is that the y axis or the x axis. I'm using the flash forge creator pro. Would have to change the starting location too right?

Everything you should need to change is in the starting script. So go to the Scripts tab and then you can edit everything you want. You probably just need to change the G1 X/Y/Z coordinate values.

Someone put up corner clamps on Thingiverse that accounted for that. He modified the right front one to not interfere with the purge. If I can find the number I will post it here.
