Is your feature request related to a problem?

At times build plates can become damages at specific places (often the center since that is the positioning often defaulted to). When that happens it would be nice to be able to specify an x and y offset as the default "load position," to save some effort moving the model every time until a new bed can be purchased.

I found something in the prusaslicer code that looks like it's carried over from slic3r where it loads at the center, but not familiar enough with the code base to be comfortable attempting change myself.

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

Add to a preferences for the printer build plate often for loading offset x and y variable, default to 0 for all build plates. Add the offset when loading the model to bed.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  1. Separate script to offset origin in all stls in a folder
  2. Manual dragging of model.

An option to enable a random offset would also be nice.
