Bed level visualizer

Hi, 

I would like to test Prusalink, but before I install it, I want to ask.

So far I use octoprint with plugin bed visualizer.

Is there such a possibility in Prusalink?

I use it for bed comparisons.

Hmm. 

I use the bed level thingie once.  It looked good, and never used it again.

Are you using it to look-see at each build plate?  Or bed comparison between printers?

Don’t trust forum advice.

I use it on new steel sheet and as a check that the Z axis is parallel to the bed. Over time, stepper motors always turn a little against each other.I wrote the beginning of the G-code so that every time I print, the values are displayed in the plugin so that I can see that the X-axis is parallel and the pad is straight.

RE:

I'd like to see a visualizer as well, or at least the data points in a grid - it's a handy tool to be able to check the mesh data if things start going wrong

A bed visualiser would be a much appreciated addition, it's the only single reason I still keep my old Pi4 floating about.

Thanks

I have started using Connect and I like it.  The bed level visualizer plugin in Octoprint is why I still have the Octoprint microsd card next to the printer.  Also for cotolapse stuff.

Good news, support for bed visualization should be coming next release, whenever that is. 0.7.0 should be sending the necessary data.
