Not really

Describe the solution you'd like

The new way of getting the purge line is to do adaptive purging. Instead of a line on the front or along the side an adaptive purge is near to where the first layer starts and will purge out a thick line of filament. In essence saving time and filament and the bed since it wont be purging in the same place.

Describe alternatives you've considered

If we could somehow get a settings value for the start gcode for the printer that could give first_layer_print_min and first_layer_print_max positions or first_layer_start_x and first_layer_start_y we can offset those value to be just to the right of that and make a small thick purge line.
