[FEATURE REQUEST] Show TIME and Progress Bar

Open DJF3 opened this issue 10 months ago • 1 comments

Feature Request

I would like to show the progress bar during the regular TIME display (TMODE=0). Updates to the progress bar could be made through API calls (or MQTT via Home Assistant)

Usecase examples: showing progress of

  • 3D prints
  • Car charging

Describe alternatives you've considered

You can show the progress bar as part of an "app" but they go away after a few seconds in my case.

It is possible that I have overlooked something :-)

Any ideas?

native apps doesnt have any dynamic api options. As this is a very specific request, it is unlikely to be implemented as the effort would be too high. Create your own customapps for printer and car. All apps rotates in the apploop. This way you can at least distinguish which one is progressbar for what.
