MMU CUT TIP

[Hobbss27]

Hey guys, i am running a Tradrack with Happy Hair, i have a tool head cutter but it needs to be activated by using a y movement not an x movement. looking at the cut tip variables in mmu_macro_vars.cfg seems to only support an X move not a Y move. does anyone know how i could change this?

I haven't checked the code but wonder if you can simply specify a negative cut distance. Should be safe enough to test by changing cut park position to the middle of the bed so you don't risk hitting something

Still would be an X move vs a Y move correct?

Not using a FIlametrix. using my own design for the archetype tool head.

Sorry, my bad. I didnt read your question properly and thought you wanted to depress & cut in the opposite direction/side rather than Y. Yes you are going to have to change the code to flip the cut direction around.

i have to redo the cutter cfg than basically make my changes, correct. i would need to reference my new section in other sections correct?

just found the custom macro section and seems to be easiuer than expected to change. i just need to read the wiki like 20 times andd memorize it it seems. this setup has so much and i keep finding how to do more the more i read. which can be frustrtating but also totally fine lol.

There is a PR for y-axis cutting for the cut macro ... I just haven't got to looking at it yet. You might want to try that...
