M114 - Coordinates not always loaded

KOBALT3D

Position of the head/nozzle is loaded into UI only after commands G28, G29, G30, G33. Just like /usr/local/Repetier-Server/firmware/marlin.xml says:

<command reportPosition="ask">G28</command>
<command reportPosition="ask">G29</command> <!-- not supported on Prusa i3 MK3/S -->
<command reportPosition="ask">G30</command> <!-- not supported on Prusa i3 MK3/S -->
<command reportPosition="force">G33</command> <!-- not supported on Prusa i3 MK3/S -->
<command reportPosition="yes" move="no">M114</command>
..
<command type="reportPosition">M114        ;@syncMotion<;/command>

So, entering G29 into console, MK3S will reply

Recv:17:38:24.045: Unknown G code: $117 G29
Recv:17:38:24.045: ok
Recv:17:38:24.049: X:62.00 Y:6.00 Z:0.15 E:0.00 Count X: 62.00 Y:6.55 Z:0.15 E:0.00
Recv:17:38:24.053: ok

and coordinates are loaded into UI.

But not when command M114 is entered into console.

M114 always copies it for me. In fact "ask" means we send M114 to get coordinates. This will only work if no move command was send.

But there is problem if you use move buttons afterwards - due to not copying values to a intermediate state they are not used as start point for moves. That will be fixed in the next update.
