3.3b1 SBC Ideamaker print time and filament usage estimates

Hi @chrishamm,
attached is a file sliced with Ideamaker 4.0.1 (latest stable release).

In the DWC job list, layer height and print time estimate by the slicer are not shown.

It looks like Ideamaker does not write the explicit layer height anywhere in the start or end G-code. I know there is ;HEIGHT:0.250 close to the start but that is the first layer height but not the regular layer height (0.15). Perhaps you can change the start G-code in Ideamaker to generate a comment like

; layer_height 0.15

where 0.15 is replaced with the configured layer height? Then the detection will work.

To get the estimated print time, you can add this escaped regex to the config file:

Print Time:\\s+((?<s>(\\d+\\.?\\d*)))$

Of course I'll add that one to the next version too.

I was told via side-channel that there is a way to add layer height info in ideamaker. I will check that out.

I have confirmed that this file is correctly parsed in standalone mode. Layer height is not provided, but RRF does not use it.
