@mfs12 - THANKS! for the quick release. I'm right in the middle of testing more M291 stuff, so the timing is excellent.

I reran my S=2 tests and confirm your good work on the issues I reported. One small nit - the OK button is not centered.

Also reran my S=3 tests and found no issues.

Two issues found with S=4

I started running S = 4 tests and found the following:

With S=4 and only two options in the array, 10 buttons were shown on PanelDue. The first two had the K values, the others were blank. Selecting a blank button resulted in the input variable value outside the K array count. (it returned the right button number).
list item

Here's a macro I wrote just to run through some test scenarios for S=4. test_M291_S4.g . If this is useful, I also have test macros for S= 0,1,2, and 3.

One more nit, the version string on the Settings page still says rc1

One additional item on M291 S=4 - The button sizes are not resized based on the length of the string in the K parameter. Maybe document a max string length?

I think that might be a consequence of it displaying "all" buttons despite only >10 has been defined, like it's simply not room to scale them up 🤔

On a side note: thumbnail in the status tab once a print has been selected, is this something that would be possible to implement without having to reinvent the wheel?

no, dynamic button size or dynamic positioning will be implemented.

Currently the max string size is 32 characters including terminating zero. although the buttons can't hold so many characters.
