    Is there a way to add a % bar to the tab if you're printing something?

      I have 2 printers with Duet Wifi's and I tend to leave the tabs open in the background when printing and I'm doing other work on the computer. Instead of having to always go to the tabs to see what % the print is at I think it would be awesome to see it right in the tab next to whatever you named your printer.

      Not sure if this would be a firmware request, or a web interface addon, but I just thought I'd ask here.

      Thanks!

        I suspect it's not possible, because AFAIK the browser only requests the favicon.ico file when it connects initially. But someone else may know a workaround.

          It would be something to add to the DWC web interface I will let @chrishamm know about this request.

            Speaking of the faveicon, how does one change that? I'd like to have them to be different colors instead of both blue 😃

              It's easy to change the text shown in the browser tab from javascript. It just needs the UI code to do something like this every now and again:

              document.title = "My fab printer: 75%";

                For chrome and Firefox you can change it dynamically with an Ajax request but I don't think you can in IE or Safari.

                  Here's a demo page showing how you can dynamically change the favicon:

                      That one is very pleasing, I especially like how it generates the images on the fly so you don't have to serve them all.

                      Looking through the web UI code, it looks like there's already a nice setProgress function which could be used to update this:

                          I like it! How hard is it to implement?
