[FR]: Is it possible to change the probing path? #478

Closed alexw22 closed 3 years ago

When probing my bed I notice it is warped in a way that could be related to the probing path of the G29 command. I am adding a picture of the bed probing results below:

The probing direction right now follows the red arrows:

I can't help but wonder if the probing direction to the right (X -> more positive ) might be lowering the BlTouch and probing in the left (X -> more negative) direction is somehow lowering the BlTouch due to some slack in the belts or something like that. Would there be a way to easily change the probing path so that I could test this? For example flipping it 90 degrees like marked with the light blue arrows below so I could test this hypothesis?

Firmware controls that, I have no control of what your firmware does when probing. This plugin only visualizes the points returned by the firmware to graph.
