Lost home screen during prints after software update to 1.0.0.dev

Mulder

Since the update, during prints, the very informative home screen gets replaced by a simple progress bar. when the printer is idle, the home screen is accessible. I can switch through info screens, e.g. head position, printer stats, and print progress, but no more 4-section homescreen. any ideas how to get it back? thanks

The progress screen is meant to replace the normal info screen. During print most data on info screen is not really important. Position changes constantly except z but you have layer instead. On graphic display you can also add now a status header with temperatures for example. Th eonly other data I normally like to know during printing.

yes, the temperatures are what I am after. how would i add that?

to me, the new screen is useless. it only shows a single progress bar and apart from that its completely empty. the previous 4-section screen showed me overall progress as well as all the other infos, I had all infos in a single screen, now I have to switch screens to get all that and have to go to extruder menu to see actual temps.

I am running this on the 12864 graphics LCD on a 32bit due.

Put "E:%ec/%Ec° B:%eb/%Eb" into ui head.

How do you print? Printing with repetier-server should show name of print, layer and if set in server also end time and remaining print time.

"E:%ec/%Ec° B:%eb/%Eb"

where exactly in ui.h should I paste this, its not valid code?

i just gave my printer a major overhaul. i used to print from SD card only, but now i have a raspbery pi 3. I wanted to use octoprint but I like repetier server more so I have to figure out how to get it running on the pi. right now I have repetier server running on my laptop.

I was forced to use repetier server because I have a strange behaviour. I am not able to connect with repetier host via usb/serial port anymore. neither with the old 8bit ramps and neither with the new 32bit due setup. (and yes, I stopped repetier server process). so now I connect via repetier server, that works fine.

You add this in config tool->display section to the variable names UI_HEAD or in Configuration.h directly.

Printing from sd card should at least show filename, but I'm in dev mode at that so it is not 100% tested.

Host problem is strange as it works the same as server regarding connection.

I tried to tweak the the infoscreen a little but i didn't find where the graphics on the infoscreen are defined.

i know now how to change the displayed text but where are the graphics?

Graphix and special handling come from void UIDisplay::refreshPage()
