Hi, when I create a cube with gridfinity lite I can't stack one with another, and if I put a cube created with lite and another normal cube they are not the same.

the cube on the left is made with gridfinity-lite the one on the right with bins.

When passing it through orcaslicer the bridges are also made at different heights:

the cube made with gridfinity lite makes the bridge 5 layers before the one built with gridfinity-bins (1mm difference)

my version of openscad is:

Thanks for the report.
The bridging appears to be a separate issue, and I'd appreciate it if you would create a new issue just for that.

The bin on the left looks like it has something clipping into the base. There should not be a flat overhang like you are seeing. Does it occur on a 2x2 or 3x3 bin as well?

Yes, it occurs in all sizes.

the left one is 2x2 and the right one is 3x3.

I will open another problem just for the bridges, thank you very much.

In case this helps....
I think if you just modify the following translate statement in gridfinity_base_lite (src/core/gridfinity-rebuilt-utility.scad) the lite bins will no longer have that overhang.

//Bridging structure to tie the bases together
difference() {

// translate([0, 0, BASE_HEIGHT-top_bottom_thickness])
translate([0, 0, BASE_HEIGHT-top_bottom_thickness/2])

Note: translate([0, 0, BASE_HEIGHT]) produces an even cleaner exterior but not sure if there are any downsides across the interior of the bins
