drop to bed feature

I have two objects on the slicer bed. I want to place one of the objects on top of the other and print them out as one, BUT, both of them drop to bed and so I cannot place one on top of the other. I need to remove this drop to bed feature to do this. is there a way to turn off this feature and then turn it back on? Thanks for any help you can give me.

Mike

Select both objects, right click on the pair of selected objects  and select "Merge" from the resulting menu. then on the Sidebar, in the object menu highlight the part you want to place on top and move it to position.

Is it possible to move one of the objects in the Z plane?

Not an object, only a part.

You can also use a gizmo.

I appreciate you quick reply to my question. And your fix to this worked perfectly. I am new to the 3d printer world and I am learning how to do things. Thanks swiss-cheese.
