Russ, thanks for those details, I was able to reproduce your download problem and will provide a fix as part of a new DWC version soon.

Regarding your pause problem: It's a terrible idea to use M25 in G-code files, we have M226 for that and I fixed a related problem in the build from my last post. M25 should be only used from other G-code sources (like HTTP, USB or so). Please can you test my latest firmware build and let me know if that build resolves your issue?

On the subject of downloads would it be possible to change the meta type to something that actually downloads instead of always opening in the browser ? I go to backup the config and always have to hit download, then copy paste from the browser window and back into my backup file, etc. I know you can do a save as After the browser displays the file, but what a pain. This happens on FF and Chrome on all the PC's I've tested with, 3 or 4.

Thanks,

Jeff

Unfortunately at the moment there is no good alternative to opening a file in the same tab, because the WiFi server isn't multi-threaded yet. On wired Duets files can be downloaded while the web interface remains connected, but if a big file was downloaded from the Duet WiFi while DWC is open, you would get an AJAX error because the WiFi server doesn't send back any JSON responses until the file transfer is complete.

AFIAK the WiFi server will be enhanced in the future, but I cannot say when those modifications will be complete. Until then you'll have to wait for file transmissions first and press Ctlr+S to save it.

Thanks Chris, i haven't gotten the chance to test this just yet.
I have been sick and other things keep me from doing it lol.

for what ever reason i was not aware about the M25/M226.

apparently i missed the "The machine pauses printing at the current position within the file. To resume printing, use M24. Do not use this code to pause the print in a G-code file, use M226 instead. "

or it was added recently and i did not know

THANKS!!!!

what about just a pop out window like you already have for editing? then we can just copy paste. ( aka edit tab)

Because currently you have to reconnect to the duet if you click the download tab… what a bout at least opening in new tab/window? ( or still better yet, and edit button lol)

i know i really want that edit function hehe your all doing some fine work! one day at a time!
