How to reproduce

Open OrcaSlicer 2.3.2-beta AppImage on Linux.
Go to Calibration -> VFA.
Keep default settings and click "OK."
Error pops up immediately and no model appears on the build plate.

Actual results

When trying to generate a VFA (Vertical Fine Artifact) calibration test, the slicer throws an error: "Loading of model file failed" and "The file does not contain any geometry data." All other calibration tests (Flow, Temp Tower, etc.) work correctly.

Expected results

A VFA speed tower should be generated and placed on the build plate
