Actual Layer #20

Hello,

maybe I missed it, but I can't find the actual/total layer in the database. Are this information missing, or I'm blind?

thanxs, greetz Stefan

I think you're right -- I remember looking into this earlier, and I don't think OctoPrint actually exposes this information in Python. The information on the web interface's gcode viewer is calculated in javascript in the browser.

Other plugins get this information in Python by parsing the gcode being fed to the printer. We can do that here, too, but it's pretty far outside the scope of what this plugin does already.

I'm going to leave this issue open because it's a feature I want, but I'm not likely to work on it soon. If somebody else implements this, I would love a PR!
