Description of main parameters
Outer_diameter

Lid_height
Container height to lid enabled vs disabled
Lock_strength_modifier - Add approximatelly 0.05 or more to make lock stronger, or -0.05 or less to make lock weaker. You can enable Cut_preview to see impact
Important to know
The way how lock mechanism clicks is affected by many dimensions and print configurations. Parameters like material type, material vendor, Outer diameter dimension, thickness, wall pattern, print settings… Even the same configuartion after changed flow calibartion can lead into different results. Believe my, I did many tests to check this.
I did my best to make calculations to generate proper geometry. However it may happen that for some of your configuration the click mechanism might not work as expected. In such case you can adapt the Lock_strength_modifier parameter and try to print the container again.
