[Improvement] Display Filament Load Screen When Filament Is Inserted #5

Open spooknik opened 1 week ago

spooknik commented 1 week ago

Hello, I am a happy owner of a Plus 4.

It would be a nice quality of life feature to have the screen show the filament load menu when filament is inserted past the filament switch (tangle sensor). It saves the user a click and is just convenient.

For example: 

[filament_switch_sensor fila]
pause_on_runout: True
runout_gcode:
    M118 Filament tangle detected
insert_gcode: load_screen_macro # Call the load screen menu in Xindi. 
event_delay: 3.0
pause_delay: 0.5
switch_pin:U_1:PC3

Does it mean that the system automatically feeds a certain amount of material after detecting the consumables? You can first add this custom setting, and we will consider adding it later.

Yes this is also a good solution and a nice feature.

However I meant if this screen could appear after detecting the consumables. So the user does not need to press 'Load' in UI, it is just done for them. IMG_4182
