        @Proschi78 This is a strange thing to want to do, but you could temporarily change the axis minimum to take a negative number or increase the axis maximum depending on which end of the axis travel you want to increase l. Do that at the start of homing X then put it back at the end.

          thanks
          better I do this via a macro.
          I have two z motors on one driver.
          I want to use it to align the x axis by moving z to the upper stops

            HomeX is a macro - so you can put the necessary commands in there, rather than write another macro.

              With this command you switch the axis limit on or off.

              However, the project should be treated with caution!
