SOOOOOO happy that's done!! Been printing flowers for past 72 hrs or so lol.....

Anyway, I have been experimenting with embedding things mid-print. Have had some success but would be alot better if I had certain control and/or info.

Is there a way to have the machine pause a print at a certain layer?
OR
Is there a way to have the machine display what layer it is currently on in a print?

If either of these things are possible it would greatly improve not only the success rate of inlayed prints but also the range of items that can be embedded mid-print.

Welcome to the Qidi club bud =)

That's really funny as I was printing the same thing! I built some filament dry boxes in order to have enough colors ready.




You can have the machine pause at a certain Z-Position using the menu on the machine. I haven't utilized this but it's definitely an interesting thought.

I remember seeing the layer height in the print statistics after "Auto Level Inactive" goes away. It takes a couple seconds to disappear and show the height but it will update as the print keeps going.
