Prusa-firmware-buddy: [ENHANCEMENT] LCD Info diplayed - ADD Layer Number printing out of the total number of layers

Created on 24 Jun 2021  路  2Comments  路  Source: prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware-Buddy

Printer type - [MINI]
Optional upgrades - [LCD info displayed]

Would it be possible to add some more info in the LCD of the print status?

I really like to use Octoprint but I have to say that I now prefer to use only Prusa LCD to tune a bit velocity temp etc while printing from there.. What I still miss is just where the print is, to compare for instance with the PrusaSlicer sliced model.. the percentage is fine but would also be nice to see the layer number that is printing out of the total number of layers so if something is weird I can go to the layer and see if it is a problem of settings or of the 3D model I can improve for better prints.

Is this a feature I can ask here?

Does it make sense also for someone else?

Thanks a lot,

Martino.

That would be great to have -- often I'm printing something and there's a "gotcha" point in the print so I'll track where I am in PrusaSlicer and comparing it to what's coming out of the printer.

Without layer information I'm subtracting the z-axis height and doing a best guess. This feature would take away the math, so I'm all for it.

Finger crossed.
