Slic3r and the modifier option

Vertex 3D Printer Vertex - Printer software (repetier, slicer, ...)

I have a difficult problem, maybe someone can help me:
Normally the stl file is loaded in Repetier and sliced with Cura or Slic3r. The object is nicely placed in the middle of the printarea.
But now I am trying to work with modifiers* in Slic3r and so generating a gcode directly out of Slic3r to import it in Repetier. Unfortunately the object in preview is then positioned besides the printarea so I can’t print it.

Someone a solution? Thanks in advance.

  • To use modifiers you have to use the Plater tab in Slic3r and this is only workable by opening Slic3r independant from Repetier.

Did you set the printer settings the same in Slic3r and Repetier?

I just played around with modifiers and it loaded fine to Repetier, but if I change the origin of the “Bed Shape” in Slic3r from 0/0 to 210/193 it will show up fine in Slic3r, but then will be outside the print area in Repetier
