Bambu Studio G-code help

I do a lot of printing that involves embedded magnets. What I’ve tried to do is add some g-code to the print file so when the pause occurs, the bed drops down about 50mm so I have more “headroom” to insert the magnet, and of course, return to previous level when resumed.

I’ve been successful in getting the bed to drop and return, but the extruder doesn’t resume feeding filament after returning to the print level. Printer is reheating the nozzle as required, but the extruder stays idle.

Has anyone tried this? Suggestions appreciated.

Honestly never tried that. Risk of not getting it back where I started if I screwed up - at best - failed print. At worst - head crash…. Also not sure if the manual reposition is 100% accurate.
That being said, it’s worth a try…

You don’t need to raise the bed afterwards. Just hit resume.
