Description
Hi Developers.
Increased safety suggestion for prevent collision on printed object.
Suggestion:
-
disable the head-movement buttons on UI, xyz,home and other headmoving functions after pressed 'print'. This function protect the completed or aborted printed part and head for silly-movement (for example "home" or "bed levelling" or lower level 'z position' button while the part is on the table.)
-
create the lock-relase button. Force need pressing the button after removed the printed object.
Thx

Research direction
Start by tracing the UI controls for XYZ, home, bed levelling, and other head movements alongside the print lifecycle. Determine where a print-started state can prevent those actions and where a post-removal lock release would fit. Done means movement controls remain protected after printing until an explicit release action, with tests covering printing and aborted-print states.
