[FR] Add tools to the printer through the UI #322

Open WriteCodeEveryday opened 2 years ago

WriteCodeEveryday commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Yes, when trying to print multiple colors using 3D Chameleon, Octoprint is having serious issues switching tools.

Invalid tool reported
Your printer reported tool T1 as invalid, reverting back to T0

Are you looking for hardware support?

No hardware support needed here.

Describe the feature you want

Somewhere under the misc settings, there would be a widget just like the Z axis offset which would allow you to go from 1 to N number of tools on your printer. It is fine if after this change is made the printer restarts.

I can exclude these from octoprint by using the "Blocked Commands" but I would like a native solution if possible.

Sorry - are you asking for the CF6.1 to be enhanced to enable CR6 printers to work with this 3DChameleon hardware? https://www.3dchameleon.com/
