Unable to print from or upload to "new directory"

[davidewen]

I like to keep my print files organized by Customer name.

I have created a few "new directories"

I am unable to upload into the new directories.

I can copy from the "G-code directory" into the new directory by drag & dropping the file.

Neither can I print from the new directory.

These are some of the errors;

Failed to get file info for SCRAPPER (N)0.4 (L)0.28mm (IF)100% (P)2 (S)160mms (°C)240 (F)i150-PF (T)12h44m.gcode

@davidewen the maximum filename length on all modern Duets is currently 120 characters including the path.
"0:/gcodes/Customer Prints/Corto Olive/SCRAPPER (R)1200 (N)0.4 (L)0.28mm (IF)100% (P)2 (S)160mms (°C)240 (F)i150 (T)13h.gcode" is 124 characters.

To keep the names of my files within the limit I use scheme which minimizes things.

Since I know that distances are in mm, temps in C, flowrates in %, etc I don't use any of qualifiers.

For example:

T190-60 means a tool temp of 190, a bed temp of 60.

LH0.1 means a layer height of 0.1.

S90 means a print speed and travel speed of 90mm/s.

S90-150 means a print speed of 90 mm/s and travel speed of 150 mm/s - if for some reason they are different.

Thanks for the info.

I will change my settings so the names are shorter.

I still have the problem of not being able to print from the new directory. I have to move my file to the root in order to print.

@droftarts
I'm around 60% complete of a 11 hour print. I'll update when it's finished.
