That's because the absolute position of A just moved by a lot. Let's say you've extruded for 1000 A units. The motor is at 1000*200. When you change the scale it suddenly wants to be at 1000*210. If you didn't get the following error you would have instead gotten 10000 stepper units of extrusion instantly to "catch up". > Can I work around this? You could put a gasket between the axis and stepgen to cancel out the error. I'm not sure how tricky that would be in practice. -- Ben Jackson AD7GD <b...@ben.com> http://www.ben.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
