Slic3r feature suggestion: custom bed avoid areas, and wear leveling
It wold be great if one could define in Slic3r which areas on the bed to avoid (if there are some damages on it) and which areas to be preferred for auto-placing of the objects. 🙂
It would also be nice to add a feature that would randomly place objects within the bed (respecting the avoidable areas), in order to level bed-wearing.

I have been manually moving objects to avoid wearing spots.

How does one enable Slic3r to place objects where ever you want them? When ever I place an object it goes to the center of the bed. I drag it to a different location, and it snaps right back to the middle. Perhaps I didn't search hard enough, but I did search for a way to turn that off.

At least on the Mac version it is here:
MenuBar -> Preferences -> Auto-center parts:
Just un-select it and you can position parts where ever you want. I had do do this before changing my PEI sheet to avoid a divot.
