Organic supports not printing on the first layer
I've tried the 2.6 alpha for the organic supports but all the models I've tested the supports don't print on the first layer, but rather start on the second. I get this is helpful for later layers to make sure there is a space between the model and the supports but for the first layer I need it to actually touch the plate so they stick. With them printing a layer up they don't adhere to the bed and just turn into strings the extruder drags around.
I don't see anything in the setting to force the supports to start on layer 1 instead of 2.
Does anybody have a suggestion for getting them to start actually on the bed?

Is that 2.6.0 Alpha 5?
Could you please save a project that demonstrates this issue, then Zip Compress the file, and attach the file on here, so that we can look at the issue you are seeing

It is with the alpha 5 version. I've attached a project that shows the problem. You can see layer one there is no support but layer 2 there.

Hi Zexsudel
try resetting your XY separation between an object and it's support, to the default value

That seemed to have fixed it. Now to give the print a whirl. Thanks for the help.

My Pleasure.
I never would have guessed that fix, without the .3mf file.
