Add drop model to table in "Add plate" menu

Hi Shahin,

In the  "Add plate" menu is it possible apart from the "Centre pieces" to have the models moved so that they have vertical 0 distance from the table.

I had a couple of cases where the model was 0.5mm above the table, didn't notice it and as a result the first layers had nothing.
The all print has failed of course because of that.

Actually nanodlp will floor pieces. The most probably very tiny triangle or something similar caused the issue. As nanodlp use lowest point as floor.

Hi Shanin,

The strange think is the following:

I have put supports in an stl file in B9CCreator.

Take the stl file from there and centred and sliced direct in nanoDLP.

The first slices were empty showing that the part was not on the floor.

Have then take the stl file and touch it to the floor in Simplify3D.

Save it and then re-slice in nanoDLP.

The first slices where correct and were touching the floor.

From there I have assume that it doesn't move them to the floor.

You are right I have double checked and it does not floor the plate automatically.

Can we do something about? Even as a separate button or choice?

Please, try latest version if it does not effect your STL file. Please, share STL if you can.
