Hello,

as my bed is not 100% straight, i tried to generate a stl model which almost have my bed geometry. have testet with and without a bed stl file. results are the same. for my understanding it should give different z values or the printed model has to be adapted.
what effect has this feature?
what kind of model is needed, solid body or just sheet?

will generate a point cloud which measures my bed exactly.

printed items are warping after some time of printing, hope this will help.

best regards, harald.

A bed stl is only a visual reference, it has no effect on slicing, it does not compensate for bed levelness.
