I wanted to be able to use my Z probe to tram the bed and tell me how to adjust the leveling screws all from the LCD without having to use the computer. I finally got it working, and [here’s a video of it in action](https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipNoS6i6Wz1GwuVHsH28CQQvyiyO7nIutSMQPJdSrlQ0lWaoG2Qw1S1w8Xwb1q_n-Q/photo/AF1QipPSKxPdqiJ6OivZUyQ0sxC_eB909t0NErepVJtu?key=blZpNEtIWVFaeDdUQWZFVVNxMWxIS09OWVRhUXp3).

As of 2/3/2023 (commit fa78e6b), this solution works on mainline Klipper without the need for any code patches. To get started, create a new `screws_display.cfg` containing the following:

```auto

This also requires a custom `menu.cfg` to override defaults. I was already using a custom menu from [this thread](https://klipper.discourse.group/t/aboms-kipper-menu/199). Here’s my new `menu.cfg` with the bed-tramming additions:

```auto

### SECONDARY MENU FOR BED TRAMMING RESULTS SCREEN ###

gcode:
    {(menu.exit(true))}

gcode:
    SET_DISPLAY_GROUP GROUP={printer.configfile.settings.display.display_group}
    SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=GLOBALS VARIABLE=display_group VALUE="'_default_16x4'"
    {(menu.exit(true))}
index: 1

```

Finally, some macros need to be added to `printer.cfg`:

This one is a hack to store a variable that is used to keep track of what menu structure to display.

```auto
[gcode_macro GLOBALS]
variable_display_group:"_default_16x4"
gcode:
    M115 ; must provide something

```

This one will home all axes that aren’t already homed. This isn’t strictly necessary but it saves time when repeating the measurements.

```auto
[gcode_macro SMART_HOME]
gcode:
    {% set toHome = [] %}
    {% if 'x' not in printer.toolhead.homed_axes %}
        { toHome.append('x') or "" }
    {% endif %}
    {% if 'y' not in printer.toolhead.homed_axes %}
        { toHome.append('y') or "" }
    {% endif %}
    {% if 'z' not in printer.toolhead.homed_axes %}
        { toHome.append('z') or "" }
    {% endif %}
    {% if toHome|length == 0 %}
        { action_respond_info('All axes homed!') }
    {% else %}
        G28 { toHome|join(' ') }
    {% endif %}

```

This one is the magic.

```auto
[gcode_macro TRAM_BED]
gcode:
    SET_DISPLAY_GROUP GROUP=screws_running
    SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=GLOBALS VARIABLE=display_group VALUE="'screws_running'"
    SMART_HOME
    screws_tilt_calculate
    {% if printer.screws_tilt_adjust.error %}
        SET_DISPLAY_GROUP GROUP=screws_error
    {% else %}
        SET_DISPLAY_GROUP GROUP=screws_results
        SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=GLOBALS VARIABLE=display_group VALUE="'screws_results'"
    {% endif %}

```

This should work with any bed that has 4 leveling screws. It _should_ also work with 3 screws _as long as_ the third screw (the “middle” one) is on the side of the bed opposite the X endstop and has a Y location roughly half way between the other two screws. In other words, on an otherwise stock Ender 3 that’s been converted to three bed screws, if there are two screws on the left and one on the right, this should work.

I know this is an old post but I love this! How do I get this to properly work on a 4 screw bed? I tried adding some screws in the screw\_display.cfg but it seems to only want me to adjust 1 screw. Thanks in advance

Got it working for the most part. Only thing left to figure out is why Base is not showing.

I knew this was coming. I’ll plan to update the macros to be compatible with mainline Klipper, but I’ll need a tester as I’ve since migrated to KlipperScreen.

All right, I’ve updated the original post to reflect the updated code and instructions. @Kaan tested this and it’s working with 4 bed screws. Ironically, I’m not using the stock LCD on my own printer anymore so I haven’t been able to test with my original 3-screw setup, but it should work just the same.

What happens if you issue a simple `SCREWS_TILT_CALCULATE` gcode command?

This guide assumes your printer is already properly set up for probe-based tilt adjustment.

Added the required Screws\_tilt\_adjust code in the cfg and this now works perfectly.
