Object placement
Posted: 14 Feb 2019, 10:29
I've run into an issue that I can't seem to find a solution to. I have a file were the origin of the object is defined such that the obvious surface to use on the build plate is not parallel with an axis (see attachment for example). In other slicers such as S3D, there is a command "Place surface on bed", where any selected polygon will be oriented flush to the build plate.
So I realize that ideally the object would be drawn in such a way as to avoid this issue, however that may not always be practical or even possible. In the example in my attachment, I didn't draw the part and I don't have the files to fix it.
Any suggestions?
