Merge Status and Dashboard in DWC mobile
-
Ladies and gents,
I'm on 3.4.0rc2 and really struggling with new DWC layout on mobile.
I keep constantly jumping between Status and Dashboard to get things done.As it is now under the Status you have Tool Position and tool/bed Temperatures and Dashboard has Machine Movement, Extrusion Control and Fan Control.
When I jog around or adjust z height etc I need to know Tool Position but that means jumping to Status to check and then back to Dashboard to adjust and round robins.
Also having Extrusion Control and Tool Temperatures would make sense to have together too aka keep an eye on when temp is up and then extrude/retract.
Last one, when editing files aka config.g keyboard is not popping up on iOS (it does work under the Console)
Could this be so called Feature Request to "dev gods" or anyone knows the fix which does not involve running older DWC variant?!
Ta
Kris

@kr15_uk 100% agree with this. I have a large Android driven screen in my machine and I also have to constantly swap between Status and Dashboard. Makes it a real pain if I'm trying to, for example, calibrate Z offset of a nozzle (it's a dual tool machine) and I cannot see the position and the jog controls at the same time. I have to open it up on my phone as well to see both.
I've tried telling the Android browser to request the desktop site instead but it seems the layout is purely changing based on resolution/orientation (it's in portrait mode).@chrishamm is this maybe something that could at least be on a toggle option? Basically just the option to merge Status and Dashboard together. I'd rather have to scroll a little, if necessary.

@adammhaile @chrishamm Quick update. Obviously this issue went into final 3.4.0
But... I have downgraded just now to DWC 3.3.0 (FW still 3.4.0) and it works as before, not saying this is a solution but I'll call it good enough for now, until (if at all) it gets fixed.
Might find it useful if not already back on DWC 3.3.0
