Description

If print settings have seam_position: back then retraction calibration doesn't generate a gcode that mean what we want it to mean.

The seam must be enforced on these "dimples" on the model.

The seam_position must be set to aligned or nearest to match the intended place.

I decided to use aligned.

Tests

I made a test build of the application and it does seem to do the job.
