To put a part on the platform

Close the gap between a part's lowest point and the platform surface, ignoring any attached supports or even other parts that might be in the way

Note: If you need to also find the orientation with the smallest height, try Minimize outbox instead.

This command is available in the Move dialog as well as a dedicated command in the Arrange menu.

  1. Ensure the part is orientated correctly within the platform, for instance using the Move and Rotate functions.
  2. From the main menu, choose Arrange > Put Part on Platform to move the part flush with the bed.
    Tip: Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Down Arrow.
