Instructions
Add an empty plate to the project, the same way the toolbar's "Add plate" button does. Returns the new plate's 0-based index for move_object_to_plate and select_plate.
Use it when parts should print separately: load them, add a plate, move the second part across with move_object_to_plate, then select_plate and slice each one. A plate cannot be added while a slice is running (409) or at the build's plate limit (422).
