Send File Name Over Wifi

How do I send the file name over wifi and not some random numbers S3D sends? S3D sends this "print-20230118-163207-248" and I have no idea what file that really is. I would like it to say elephant.

This is a good suggestion. I think for now you can click Export Build File to Disk and then choose that file in the Machine Control Panel when you want to start the print. That way it will have the correct name when it gets sent to the printer.

I figured that out after this post. Kinda defeats the purpose of having the upload button on the preview page if you need to do the extra steps to get the file name.
