Set Z=0 to the middle of the Bed before leveling... #8

Not a problem, but it would look nicer and clearer in the leveling mesh...

Describe the feature you want

If I do a bed leveling, it shows me values between -2,4 and -2,00. It would look much better in the leveling mesh if I could set to Z=-2,2 in this case. This is approximately the center of the bed.

The firmware could take one probe at the center of the bed and set this value to Z=0, then do the automatic bed leveling...

There is a build option to use the nozzle as the Z endstop for homing and this will probe the centre of the bed when homing the Z axis, leveling will then be based around this figure giving values closer to 0. There are disadvantages to this too in that you cannot home with anything on the bed and a G34 has to be used to level the two Z screws rather than use the Z optical stops on each side of the bed.

Okay. Thanks for your response.

I will leave it as it is. The disadvantages of homing with the probe prevail, just to look nicer on the leveling...
