Wishlist: display x,y,z in the Move control

zapta

In the Move control on the PanelDue (the one that allows to move x,y,x in 0.5, 5, 50, ... increments), please display also the current x,y,z.

I use this panel for various testing often need to exit that panel to view the current x,y,z.

Thanks.

Keep in mind that this problem can only be solved for the most common printers. Printers with additional axis or non-standard configs might not have enough space on the screen to display the additional controls.

closed add axis coordinates to MovePopup and PrintTab #43

@resam Maybe moving the extra axis to a separate menu would be a good solution even for the users with extra axis? I think even when you have extra axis most time you are interested in the basic three.

This would allow even to display the basic three axis like in pronterface (with I think is more user friendly)

It would be nice to have UP on the screen moves the bed up (which decreases Z in my case). Having to click -50 on the LEFT side of screen to move the bed UP over challenges my brain

I looked briefly at your code. It seems to address the case of no space on the screen with the (MaxAxis < 5) condition, so should help vast majority of users and will not affect the rest.
