Looks as though we had a driver breakdown.

Thanks Lars, appreciated.

Thanks Michael, I am still using version 1.7 for my printing, but have the version 2 on the desktop, which I am going through trying get used to it. I will play around with this to see what I get, where do I find how to set an array. Cheers.

Hey @erniehatt There are a few options for setting up more probe points or custom ones, take a look at this: The menu you are looking for is going to be under Printer>Features>Leveling>Leveling Solution.

@erniehatt The key to alignment and subtraction in MC is to first align the parts, then select "flatten" from the right side panel. This is the icon with the two arrows. This will remove the align function from the history, and will ungroup the objects, but will leave the objects aligned. Then reselect the two objects, click on subtract, and select which item to subtract from the dialog box. In this video at 16:00 I show you how to do this with a cube and a cylinder. https://youtu.be/vIA71tSpTC8 Once I figured out the nuances of MC I found it a nice middle ground design tool between the sophistication of Tinkercad and Fusion 360. (Closer to Tinkercad) Hope this helps.

@Mkopec That is correct. The printer will need to be tethered to a PC or other device running MatterControl.

Can't do much at the moment the printer is down, because of the lengthy time it takes to heat the bed, I increased the input voltage to 24c via a Mosfet unit, it increased the temp time ok, but it fails to stop at the designated temp. Haven't a clue why, but am looking into it.

Thank you.

@erniehatt To best guide you through the printer setup in MatterControl, please submit a request to support@matterhackers.com.

thank you, will do. I love the T10, hope it will do as you say.

thank you for the info, appreciated.

Thanks for that.

Evidently it's not, maybe another figure of the imagination.Merry Christmas.

Thanks Ryan, have sent image via email.EDIT by ryan.lutz:

It means that your model is too complicated for the graphics processor on the MatterControl Touch (i.e. the model has too many polygons for the GPU to handle). You can still print your model, you just cannot view it before printing. If this is an issue, then you can either slice it on a PC and send the G-Code over or decimate the model to reduce the number of polygons.

That turns out to be true, but it does not alter the fact that the given figure of 0,6 recommended in the help file, is misleading, a more appropriate figure would be 0.1.

Thank , you very much for that, and the wiki link.

@erniehatt said:That did not work, it just reverted back to original position when printing.Make sure to click the 'Save' button after editing. Mirrored models is not a currently-known bug. If you can email the usual files to us, we might be able to troubleshoot the problem.
