Memory tare buttons on main screen #185

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I really like the auto tare function with my bean holder. I also like to weigh the grounds out but I often forget to tare the grounds container.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be cool if we could access the held weight memory values on the main screen. For example, if we had three memory values then on the main screen there are three small buttons (next to tare) it minuses to that amount on the scale.

Describe alternatives you've considered I have considered using the grounds container for the bean container but with a hot start it’s not viable.

Additional context This could be useful for milk weighing too as I often forget to tare the milk container.

You know that you could weight-in your containers to automaticaly tare? Multiple containers then will auto-tare if you put it on the scale.

I have set that up but the issue is often with the milk jug and grounds container I'll forget to tare to 0 then put the item on the scale.

There's no way to access the negative value of you already have an amount in a container.

Ah I got it. You want to put beans+container on the scale, press the "subtract container 1" button and hav that as a weight in weight for the beans. Not sure where to put all these buttons as the weight display fields in the are already a bit crowded already.

Could either be a drop down next to the tare button with the options or a combined button where tare is press but an icon on the right side of the pill such as a down arrow to select a container.

Edit: could be optional toggled in the set container weight menu?
