Hi All,
I am not sure how many others tend to use the Communication tab on the Machine Control Panel to send commands to their printers, however I tend to use this quite frequently. I find however that to be able to see return communication from my printer I need to have the Verbose option checked(things like running pid tune) which is understandable, however when this is enabled this also shows all M105 commands being sent and received to report the current temperatures which can tend to clutter up any direct user commutation making it hard to parse.
My request is to have an option to disable displaying the chatter for things such as the the temperature reporting M-code and response to that M-code between Simplify3D and the printer when not user initiated communication.
I do realize there may be some complications to this. Like if Simplify3D sends an M105 then I immediately send a command it could be hard to determine if the response is for the M105 or the user initiated command. To this situation I do not particularly have a good idea on how to handle beyond checking the response to see if it matches the format for an M105 or not and filter based on that, or have a field that I can specify a regex type response to filter on. Though a filter like that would probably also break picking up any user initiated M105 commands sent.
Anyway, this something I would like to see in a future version if possible. Not necessarily a big user facing feature or change to some but something I would find that makes my experience using Simplify3D that little bit better than it already is.
