    Octoprint change for mesh bed leveling in Marlin 1.1.0RC4

    I wish I knew enough to make it a real plug-in. I don't. So it needs to be manually added.

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    Definitely happens for me. I can't prove that is what caused me to lose settings before, but I think it probably was.

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    Ahh. It's entirely possible (probably) that my losing MESH settings followed homing in XY or in Z from octoprint controls. I'll try that out...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    No useful tips on what happened, but @WheresWaldo asked for updates, so... lost mesh settings again tonight. Nothing unusual had happened that...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    Another MBL follow up. I printed a "chainmail bracelet" from thingiverse as a test. This is especially challenging because there are many...

    Unless you lose settings for some reason, like I did last night.

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    One more thing - It would be nice if I could just turn leveling on and then give it the last leveling results (via adjust point commands - "G29 S3...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    I thought about that. Definitely do the M500. Usually, when I turn off the printer and turn it back on, the mesh persists. . I should add...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    Hmmm. Things are mostly working well, parts printing out. Mesh bed leveling rocks. etc. But... I've had two instances (at least one definitely)...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    Loaded RC6 with your changes, including the setting 2 for MESH_HOME_SEARCH_Z. Did a M502/M500 and a mesh leveling. Printed a quick test (small...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    Looked a little more (but not enough) into MESH_HOME_SEARCH_Z. There are some changes around MBL in RC6. In particular, I see it now adding...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    Is that behavior new in RC6? I left the value at 0 in my local RC5 and mesh leveling works fine for me. I had left it at 0 because it seemed...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    What does MESH_HOME_SEARCH_Z value do? Seems to be bouncing around a bit over the RC's (0, 4, now 2). Also - are there any meaningful changes in...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    Thanks. Sounds like an RFE for the Marlin team then. Maybe I'll poke in the code myself. Although since they're looking at going to automating...

    Marlin Firmware Upgrade 1.1.0 RC8 & RCBugFix (For R1 & R1+PLUS)

    The mesh leveling in 1.1.0RC4 with the changes above is dragging my nozzle between set points. Is this because I have something set up wrong or...
