      Hi all,
      Is there a way to easily switch between bed.g files?
      I have a bed that is 320 mm diameter.
      Every now and then I put a steel plate with Buildtak on it. The buildtak is only 200x200 mm square
      So I want to use different probe points.

      This means two Bed.g files, right? Or can I define different probe points in the same file and with a parameter do 1 check or the other?
      I know, it is probably a very rare issue, but still, I have to ask.
      I was thinking of switching out the files, but that is cumbersome.

        The only thing that is special about bed.g is that it is run in response to a G32 command. So you can create additional files with the same structure and invoke them as macros using M98.

          The other thing you might want to add to that macro (or another macro) is to redefine the bed size (axes minima and maxima) using M208. Just a thought….....
