Show remaining length from Spoolman

[AndreKR]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

When the Spoolman integration is enabled, the remaining weight on the spool is shown:

But when I go to Jobs I only see the length of filament needed:

This makes sense because the slicer doesn't know the density of the filament, that is only stored in Spoolman.

Describe the solution you'd like

Spoolman knows the density of the filament:

So if fluidd would calculate and show the remaining length instead/in addition to the remaining weight, it would make it easier to find spools with suitable amounts of filament remaining.

Actually fluidd probably doesn't even have to do the calculation. Spoolman shows the remaining length in its UI:

So I would assume it's available through the API as well.

Hi, thanks for your request. Would a simple setting to switch between remaining weight and length suffice or would you prefer to see both values at the same time?

[AndreKR]

The ability to switch to length would be fine for me, I don't need to see both at the same time. Not sure if that is really simpler, implementation-wise. 🤷

Thanks. A setting to switch between weight and length units will be included with the next fluidd release :)
