I get an endless stream of "Time Left" popups
-
Looking at the time remaining amounts and comparing them to the layer times, they do seem to match so yes, it spit it out on every layer.

- how does it spit out times
slicer embeds it in the g-code methinks
-
Did some more digging and found that S3D does indeed offer variables that could easily insert a time remaining amount in a message. Cura has no such abilities for some reason so it never occurred to me that the slicer might do this.

@jens55 You can search for M117 in the g-code-file to be sure.

@jens55
It does! You're all right, it's a M117, and it's because of the slicer gcode. I completely forgot about this Cura option since I'm coming from an LCD.
Thank you guys!

You were saying?

Nothing to see here ... move along now ... move along ....

Technically speaking, Cura has no such abilities. It's the plugin that's doing the work and not Cura

@jens55 Sorry bud, the post processor has been in there for a long time by default with a selection of default scripts to use.

Ok, I will see if I can find myself a tasty crow to eat ....
