MINI+ Suggestions/Enhancements: time remaining option, menus, bed heating, purge, PrusaLink #67

Closed re490 closed 1 year ago

re490 commented 1 year ago

MINI+ Wish List / Suggestions:

1) 4.4.1 Firmware changed to showing Clock time for print finishing; Consider option to toggle print time between clock time or hr/min remaining (I prefer knowing hrs/min remaining, not clock time)

2) Make Front knob rotation consistent in Menus: in Menus, clockwise moves selection down, but in adjusting Z-height, clockwise moves the nozzle up.

3) Why does Heated Bed need to heat up when loading/unloading filament? (doesn't save print time)

4) during filament loading, the purge menu has a STOP button that doesn't work and no way to change the duration of purge. Consider a menu item for nozzle purge that allows user to manually start/stop a purge for any amount of time between prints or during filament loading instead of a fixed duration of filament purge.

5) If you send a file to the printer using Wifi/PrusaLink while another file is printing, the currently printing file name in PrusaLink changes to the name of the sent file

thanks! Just some ideas for consideration.

Hi! I am in no way affiliated with this project, but I would recommend creating seperate tickets for each of your bullet points.

This way they may be discussed individually, or closed if it is a duplicate of an existing item!

Some of these are clearly bugs and seperating them makes it easier for the devs to find and prioritize them.

I definitely agree with point 1 and 3 though! I hope that can be implemented!

Please post every bug report or feature request as a separate issue, but first please check among the already existing issues. If an issue already exists, please don't create a new similar one but comment in the existing thread.

Allow me to briefly comment on your points and close this issue as invalid.

  1. Already existing issue.
  2. I personally find it intuitive as it is now, this is a matter of personal preference though. Feel free to open an issue, but also mind this is simply a conventional choice and many customers may not appreciate a sudden change of trend
  3. Already existing issue.
  4. Already existing issue.
  5. Already existing issue.

Also please notice all of these points concern the firmware, and therefore they should be posted in a different repository (prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware-Buddy).
