Basic Information: Printer Model: Ender 5 Plus MCU / Printerboard: BTT Mini e3 V3 Describe your issue: Does anyone know if it is possible to take values from (exp. [stepper_x]…) and calculate a coordinate? I tried the following: [safe_z_home] #{% set save_x = printer.configfile.settings[“step…

You need to use: {% set bed_x_max = printer.configfile.settings.stepper_x.position_max %} [safe_z_home] is not the right place for such. Use [homing_override] for such.

[image] Sineos: {% set bed_x_max = printer.configfile.settings.stepper_x.position_max %} Thanks for your Help. But i think i dont really understand. Why cant (or shouldnt) i use it in this section? I tried to use it in save_z_home and the setting of the variable now seems to work, but there…

[image] Sineos: is not meant to extended via macros means you CAN or SHOULD not? I think i should tell you the Reason for this… I often change the complete Toolhead. So everytime the Size and Positions do change. I try to use only one variable at start of the printer.cfg for all the penden…

[image] SNX: means you CAN or SHOULD not? Cannot. Only settings that offer a gcode block can be amended with macros.

Ich sehe grade in deinem Profil das du aus D kommst… Ich bin mal so frei die Sprache zu wechseln da mir das englisch recht schwer fällt. Ok, also geht nicht weil geht nicht. Soweit ok… Das mit dem Homing Override ist mir nicht ganz klar… was ist das und wie wende ich das an? Bzw könnte das u.U. e…

[image] SNX: Ich sehe grade in deinem Profil das du aus D kommst… Sorry, but this an English speaking forum and other readers shall have the chance to participate as well. Effectively you can do a lot with macros and as far as my understanding of your concept goes, this should be possible bu…
