Bug report - Macro name length on PanelDue

[kuhnikuehnast]

Hi there,
found a funny bug:
If the name of a macro is to long, it gets cropped on the PanelDue screen. But if you click on the cropped name on the PanelDue, you get the answer that the Macro isn't found. (It tries to execute a Macro with exactly the same cropped name as on the PanelDue and not the original one).
Would be great to fix this!

greetings kuhni

Have the same issue

Does the problem occur only on macros on the Control tab, or does it also occur with macros on the Macros popup?

On the Control tab, macro names are currently limited to 20 characters. You may not see all 20, but 20 will be stored.

It occurs only on macros on the Control tab. If they are clicked on the Popup it works. (Even if then also not all characters are displayed...)

@kuhnikuehnast @dc42 Same here. The macros pop-up works.

Thanks, both of you. I've added this to the work list for the next release.

Is there a mistake in the Release branch? https://github.com/dc42/PanelDueFirmware/releases As the current release, you can download 1.21.3... But on both of my Panels (5i and 7i) I have the 1.21.4 installed???

Yes, two years is a long time.

@Abelli please stop resurrecting old threads, unless you have new information. If asking a related question, start a new thread and reference the old thread. Otherwise I’m going to assume you’re a spammer and ban you, as your behaviour and posts are similar to tactics used by spammers.

@droftarts At least his last post had actual 3d printing related content. Seems legit.
