Clarification on nozzle height used for initial move from homing position to 1st printing position

Just to clarify: 

  1. PrusaSlicer will insert a "safety" initial Z height of either your set 1st layer height OR your specified z-lift increment to attempt to protect against dragging the nozzle across the bed. This is inserted after initial homing and user start gcode, before any printing moves.
  2. The initial layer height inserted by PrusaSlicer after homing and before printing on the 1st layer will be EITHER your set 1st layer height OR your set z-lift height (not 1st layer height plus z-lift).
  3. Final adjustment to the 1st layer print height is made after the XY move.
