Travel (Relative)

Move the toolhead by a relative offset (dX, dY, dZ) without extruding. Use these blocks when you need to shift position by a known amount — for example, nudging the path or stepping in one axis.

Blocks

Travel Relative X, Y, Z
Travel by offset (dX, dY, dZ). All three offsets are applied.
Travel Relative X
Travel by X offset only.
Travel Relative Y
Travel by Y offset only.
Travel Relative Z
Travel by Z offset only.

Example

Interactive preview is available in the interactive reader.

Parameters

X (mm)
Offset in X (positive = right, negative = left).
Y (mm)
Offset in Y (positive = forward, negative = back).
Z (mm)
Offset in Z (positive = up, negative = down).

How it works

Each block outputs a G0 (or G1 with no extrusion) move by the given offset from the current position. The single-axis blocks apply only one offset. All inputs accept numbers or math expressions. Retraction is handled by the engine when needed for travel moves.
