I had no idea about the ClippingPlane command. thank you, it'll save a bunch of time trying to figure out if I've got everything supported correctly.

i dont know what improves in updates but i think Home button need return for calibration, project preview or project full working area are needed, and also check error support like b9 software is useful

If you turn on history, run the clipping plane command and then curve from intersection, you get a nice perimeter line too (which works great contrasted on a different layer colour) which auto updates if you nudge the plane up and down in Z. I've set one of my nudge key binds to 0.03mm, which is 30z.

Is there a projector menu option that has bigger text to use when calibrating? The regular menu display text is so small.

I just use the grid to focus. I don't use the projector menu. Just make sure the lines are as sharp as possible.

Thanks. I'm currently getting great results but I noticed when I used the grid the very top corners weren't fully formed into a grid. Is this normal?

No. You can adjust that on the Grid Adjustment screen.

Lower the first distortion parameter from the left (the 0.97) to 0.96. That should make the corners show up again.

Don't forget to check your grid size to make sure it's the same 48mm x 27mm. If it shrunk a little, you can use the zoom wheel to make it a little larger.

I had to unscrew my projector mount and move it a bit to even both sides for the grid to fit nicely.
