! Can you fix this?
Thats very trivial: You seem to just have forgotten to edit one of the
two instances of "Negative" into "Transparency".

Possibly, but there is against, that it is very temperature dependent.
Transfer rates shouldn't be, motor parameters might likely.

Oh, cool! Now, currently I would be glad if I found an option where to
tune and change it to the better at all. I have to check once again with
windoof next, maybe it is indeed an assembly defect.
! Until then, I appreciate your help very much
I'm humbly impressed by Your engagement and supportiveness
