Hi

Would be cool to have a option to place your print random on the buildplate, to "even" wear of the buildplate.

Thanks

ensure free layout is enabled and optionally uncheck auto layout if you don't want parts to re-arrange on import. you should be able to place parts anywhere on the build plate.

Hi

It’s not because I want free placement, but I want the slicer do random placement for every new print/slice.

I see. This is an option in belt printing mode, but I can see where it's useful for standard printing as well. Would it suffice to add a button to "randomize arrangement" on the build surface?

That would be perfect I think.
But you say button? So not part of the slicer settings/prpfile? Would like a radio button.
