Macro file sorting
-
Similar to the gcode file sorting request - the ability to reorder Macro files.
-
Macro files are ordered by name. So you can get them in the order you want if you are creative with the names. However, I have previously considered allowing names such as "3#E motors off" where the whole name would be used for sorting but only the text following the # character would be displayed in the Macros list, allowing you to change the order without changing the displayed text.

I like the "3#" solution. For instance, I have controlled LED lights and I have a set of macros in a folder called LEDs:
Off
Half On
OnI'd like them to appear in this order but currently they are not. This is just a simple example, I use a lot of macros!
On a related topic - I'd love to be able to have macros on the g-code console and print status displays too. Extra credit if the macro can be scoped to one or multiple of these pages!
-
In fact this is already possible in DWC, I use that for exactly the same purpose. To make sure your macros show up in the desired order, name them like this:
1_Off
2_Half On
3_OnObviously this would be easier to do if there was an easy way to rename files. I may have a look at this later today.
