Support for auto levelling

I've used FlatCam successfully to mill my first double sided PCB. Only feature that it lacks in my opinion is probing copper board for auto levelling. I had to use a separate software to convert gcode generated from FlatCam to incorporate auto levelling. Although it worked properly, the work flow is bit cumbersome as two tools are not integrated. Are there any plans to incorporate this functionality in the near future?

I just finished a working version for the Voronoi diagram and could not sleep until finished :)

Ok, don't forget to delete previous Preferences files otherwise strange things might happen. Also there may be bugs since I play fast and loose there. Now I'm going to bed, let me know if you have questions and I will answer asap.

But before that I will add in the assets folder a wheel for the Shapely 1.8dev0 (Windows). You may need it, it was not easy to build one (even if the speedups are disabled). LE: Done.

Apologies for not responding to this for a bit. I am still working on it, it is just taking a bit longer than I originally anticipated :)

Hi guys, what is the latest state of this feature? I'm using 8.994 Beta and already customized it a bit for my needs (custom post processor with correct tool change checkbox handling and spindle soft start). I enabled Autolevelling button and tried to understand how to use it by reading the code but not a lot of success here.

Hi, Autolevelling is not functional.

Marius, what's exactly is not working? I have a bit of free time and want to try to do something with it... I tried to use cncJS's autoleveling plugin, but not happy with the result :( Also I tried to find some working autolevelling solution for macOS without any success.

Is my understanding correct: applying autolevel mesurements is not implemented yet?

Hi, there... I use GRBL Candle to mill my PCBs and its own level-map feature works perfectly and modifies z-level GCode on-the-fly

> @pvaletka > Is my understanding correct: applying autolevel mesurements is not implemented yet? Hi, You are correct, the Z correction is not applied on the Gcode. Also the bilinear algorithm is not implemented yet, someone provided a code snippet but without any explanations and that could not be used. So only the Voronoi method works.
