When we click this button:,

Can we make it update this figure:,

Instead of having to manually update it?

Thanks

You know about

[https://www.klipper3d.org/G-Codes.html#z\_offset\_apply\_endstop](https://www.klipper3d.org/G-Codes.html#z_offset_apply_endstop)

and

[https://www.klipper3d.org/G-Codes.html#z\_offset\_apply\_probe](https://www.klipper3d.org/G-Codes.html#z_offset_apply_probe)

Make a macro with the one of your use plus a `SAVE_CONFIG` and put it onto your frontend

Neither of those work when the z\_offsets are automatically commented out by klipper.

The factor in my OP needs to be updated instead.

Thanks though.

The actual values appear at the end of the printer.cfg in the `SAVE_CONFIG` section

```auto
...
#*# <---------------------- SAVE_CONFIG ---------------------->
#*# DO NOT EDIT THIS BLOCK OR BELOW. The contents are auto-generated.
#*#
#*# [extruder]
#*# control = pid
#*# pid_kp = 19.730
#*# pid_ki = 0.788
#*# pid_kd = 123.560
#*#
...
#*# [bltouch]
#*# z_offset = 1.740
