in Repetier-Host
Hi,
I am implementing my plugin according to this page:
https://rhplugins.repetier.com/host_extender_1_1basic_1_1_g_code_analyzer.html

I want to get Estimated printing time of current job like Printing statistics in the Print Preview tab. How can I get it?

    I currently add a button to User control. when it is pressed, host.RunCurrentJob() is called  in a function.
    It seems to be okay; the contents in Gcode editor are sent step by step.

    Convert IPrintJob to PrintJob and and read value computedPrintingTime which is estimated printing time in seconds when the job starts.

    Thank you! Repetier,

    I found GcodeAnalyzer can be used to calculate the time. After instatiating a GcodeAnalyzer object, I experimentally send all Gcodes in GcodeEditor to there using analyzeShort().

    Anyway, I try IPrintJob, too. Thanks!

    Yes, analyser is what gets fed when you start a print to compute the time or to compute it for preview. What I said is just the result.
