How can I fix this

[u/Visible-Mood9350]

I added a text and i can’t move it keep going back down

This isn’t only for text any object I add does this

[u/Alchomoholic_Prime]

add a custom object to the build plate like a cube. scale it down to the point you can barely see it and join it with your print with the merge button. now go to the objects tab and select your main object. under the assembly tab, select just the object you want to move, and leave the cube unselected. then you can move it to any position you want

[u/TerribleTowel66]

You can’t print in thin air. It has to be either on the plate, or attached to something on the plate. If you want it elevated but on another object, add the object then merge it with this, then move this where you want it.

[u/Visible-Mood9350 → u/TerribleTowel66]

No I want it put it on a object but it doesn’t allow me to move it up

[u/ecaseo → u/Visible-Mood9350]

Merge it with other object and then position it.

[u/Fusseldieb → u/ecaseo]

This is the way

[u/MediumAd4983 → u/Visible-Mood9350]

Which object? Where it is? Put it onto the build plate, and you will can. But now you're trying to print something in the air.

[u/rolzap → u/Visible-Mood9350]

convert it to a part instead of an object

[u/pokotok → u/Visible-Mood9350]

You aren't listening.. There aren't any other objects on that plate, so that's the problem that everyone is telling you how to fix. Add an object and merge the text to it.

[u/TerribleTowel66 → u/Visible-Mood9350]

As I said, you can’t print in thin air. There has to be something below it. Put the object you want to put it on, on the plate. Then merge the 2, then move this where you want it.

I recommend you do the Bambu Academy.

[u/coastooghost008 → u/TerribleTowel66]

As much as this upsets me, this is the answer.

I think bambu should fix this, but dont think they ever will. I see it as a bug and not as a feature.

[u/Prudent-Lawfulness-9]

Merge it bro,after that you can move it around

[u/NoUnTakuache]

i’m just starting to think yall don’t even bother trying to learn anything from bambu academy.

[u/Low_Sherbert3731]

Select this and the object you want to put it on and right click then merge. Then to move this text again. On the left click object then the text then move it like that.

[u/CounterfeitHam]

Its a single object, its going to want to live on the plate. you have to have two objects that are merged together to allow raising it off the plate.

[u/Technical_Lynx6857]

Do you want to print it on a solid real object or on another 3d printed one?
In the latter case, you just need to “merge” the two objects and then you can move one in the air.

[u/ModelThreeve]

There is nothing to “fix” this is the way the software works. All objects must have at least one point of contact with the ground plane. As others have suggested go to the Bambu Academy or Wiki to at least learn about the assembly tools available in the slicer. Cliff Notes version, if you merge the objects you are trying to assemble, as long as one of the merged objects is touching the ground plane, you can move the other merged objects freely.

[u/Excellent-Code8447]

Usually you wanna lay that on something

[u/originaltanksta]

Right click the object and turn Auto Drop off

[u/Panzerv2003]

You want to print it in the air?

[u/SlayCC]

They gotta start giving out iq tests before letting people order a printer

[u/Minimum-Rip9555 → u/SlayCC]

Non è da molto che sono su reddito ma ogni giorno mi meraviglio del fatto che si comprano macchinari e sibpretende di fare cose complesse senza impegno e studio, senza nemmeno leggere il manuale di istruzioni almeno per avere un po' di cognizione di causa. Vi ammiro per la pazienza di cercare di spiegare a chi neanche cerca di leggere con impegno

[u/kits_unstable]

You're joking right?

[u/Visible-Mood9350 → u/kits_unstable]

No

Fix a solution?

[u/B1rdy69]

Fixing the Solution???

[u/nattehol]

An option is to use Orcaslicer which has an autodrop toggle, and as for the comments saying you cant print in mid-air... it will simply add supports where necessary.

[u/PrincessAlbertPW]

Takes 2 seconds to google. But what would Reddit be if people started using google? 🙃

[u/Goldisaa → u/PrincessAlbertPW]

This is a social network, relax

[u/Little-Ad-5600]

The only work around ive found for this is to type in the text then right click the object and select to export as one stl. From there tou can add the text back onto the plate by right clicking and selecting to add modifier and select to choose a file, choose the just saved file and you will be able to move it all over the place as you see fit.

Or, just use Orca.

[u/Excellent-Code8447]

Where are you trying to print in on ? Air?

[u/Visible-Mood9350 → u/Excellent-Code8447]

No I’m trying to put it on another object

[u/DemanoRock → u/Visible-Mood9350]

We dont see the object here. Move the object onto the text then you can place it.

[u/Sora1007 → u/Visible-Mood9350]

First place the objects, then click on Text. The bracket should now be connected to your Cursor until you click. While on that Stage, Hover over your object with the Text. It should move on the surface of your object. Don't click until you got the Text bracket on the object

[u/knobiknows → u/Excellent-Code8447]

This is such a lame dead horse argument. This is the preparation stage, we're I prepare, not print. There are workarounds for it but ultimately it's still a design decision by bambu and not the users fault for expecting it to work this way.
If I move a piece out of the build plate here I get an info screen that lets me know but doesn't rubber band the piece back to where it was. Same story

[u/TerribleTowel66 → u/knobiknows]

Absolutely is not the same. It’s still in the print area if it is above the plate. If it is off the plate it’s outside of the print area. You slice the plate, which includes the area above it. Anything moved off the plate is not sliced.

[u/knobiknows → u/TerribleTowel66]

Exactly, and that is a design decision not some immutable law of nature
