@dc42 Files whose names begin with "." are suppressed in DWC as you have confirmed, but are displayed by the Maestro's menu system "files" command on the 12864 lcd. I have just tested and confirmed this. (Latest firmware, latest DWC etc.)
Now I understand! I thought you were saying that files beginning with '.' in the /menu folder were showing up in DWC.
I've made a code change to hide filenames beginning with '.' in the 12864 files display. This will be released in the 2.03beta firmware.
Sweet!!!

v1.6 is now on github,
https://github.com/mudcruzr/Duet-Maestro-12864-Menu-Files/releases/tag/v1.6
here are the release notes:
As I no longer need a blank line at the bottom of the main page for M117 messages (Now using M291 messages). I was able to use that real estate to give the existing layout some extra elbow room in the vertical direction. If you do have any M117 message strings (e.g. M117 "Print Started" in your slicer's start G code section) you should change them to use M291 (e.g. M291 P"Print Started") if you want them to display on the 12864
Additionally, I was made aware that without a license assigned to this project, technically no-one should use it. I think that the unlicense is the most liberal available and the most appropriate for the intent behind providing these menu files.enjoy

v1.7 now on Github
https://github.com/mudcruzr/Duet-Maestro-12864-Menu-Files/releases/tag/v1.7
Release notes:
After a recent print went wrong and crashed the BLTouch bending the pin, I realised I had no way of manipulating the probe while I was standing at the printer. I've added the ability to extend, retract, test, and reset the probe from this new menu. It is accessed from the CTRL (Control) menu.

Regarding the license. You might consider the WTFPL
-
@veti lol, if I'd seen that before I attached the unlicense, I might have.

I've updated a couple of the 12864 menu files to cope with the changes in 2.03RC1
As usual they are in https://github.com/mudcruzr/Duet-Maestro-12864-Menu-Files
2 Files required updates to cope with the changes in 2.03RC1
The new files are main_for_203RC1 and heat_for_203RC1
Upload the 2 new files, rename the existing heat and main to something like heat_backup and main_backup then rename the 2 new files to heat and main respectively.
Note these files are ONLY for using with 2.03RC1

mudcruzr-
THANK YOU for making the files available!
I am using them on LPC1768 port on a ReArm with RRD full graphic LCD.
No network as of yet, and Octoprint is not playing nice with LPC port. LCD is the only way to print.
I changed leveling menu because I don't use BLTouch, but all of the others seem to work well.
Thanks again for your work and for sharing.

Thanks for sharing, this is great.
I wonder would it it not be a good resource to link to from the wiki?

I wouldn't have an issue with that but I guess it'd be up to @dc42

Link added!

Is there a 'built in' Maestro function to turn the main power off/on? I want to toggle the PS_ON pin via M80/M81.
I am looking to add this to the main menu as a button. All I can come up with so was is defining 2 buttons, one "On" and one "Off".
I can not figure out how to toggle a single button as of yet- 2 img files, one for on, one for off. when one state is enabled, the other is an option.

That's not currently possible. We'd need to add 2 more visibility options to the current list, one for when power is on and the other for when power is off.

dc42-
my apologies, i seem to be suffering from my specific application blindspot, not being familiar with the original Maestro operation-
I am using LPC port on ReArm. Both the controller and display are 'On' as I feed it power via +5VFSB on APX PSU. ATX control via M80/M81.
To turn on the main power, I use the PS_ON function.
So lacking the power on/off state, I will use 2 menu button items to trigger on & off.
Making the icons is proving more challenging than I thought.

I threw together an Excel spreadsheet to 'draw' icons and convert the binary and hex numbers. Its semi-automatic: meaning that you might need to adjust the lines and ranges to suit.
I 'checked' it against the binary for the fan.img icon in mud's menus.
https://github.com/nionio6915/LPC1768-RepRapFirmware-Files/blob/master/icon-creator.xlsx?raw=true
It uses conditional formatting to highlight the boxes and fill them in if you populate it with a 1, and spits out the binary and hex codes.
I only set it up for up to 8 pixel and 16 pixel widths. If you adjust the rows / columns you will have to play with the array and transposes.
Its not hard, but dont be surprised if you have to tweak it a bit.As always, use at your own risk, your mileage will vary.

Thanks for sharing this!
Another way that users have created icons is to use the same editor that Marlin users use to generate the icons for a 12864 display, then use a hex editor to add the 2 header bytes at the start.
-
@dc42 can you point us to the Marlin way? I did not know such a thing existed.

I'm not certain, but I found a link on Hackaday to this http://en.radzio.dxp.pl/bitmap_converter/. It looks like it generates a C file, so you would either need to compile that or use a hex editor such as HxD to create a binary file containing the data.
-
Thanks for sharing. One request, is it possible to add Emergency Stop to the menu? Pause would not stop the print head while it was homing and my filament spool somehow got trapped under the Z motor which was crushing it. Unfortunately powering off caused me to lose everything on the SD Card.

@bugsysiegals I can't see why not, but I'm on holiday now until July, but (if I remember) I'll look at it when I get back. If you don't hear from me by say the 5th or 6th of July, I've forgotten - send me a reminder, lol.
