Yeah, this is super annoying. It doesn’t even display the time remaining until a color change or pause anymore, which is extremely frustrating as I do a lot prints that have objects inserted. Some of the oversights by the development team are just blowing my mind these days. Like the required thermal model not being compatible with the Revo, which tons of people use these days. I just don’t understand what’s going through their heads sometimes.

If it makes you feel any better, that thermal model thing doesn't appear to even be compatible with Prusa...I just spent a couple weeks fussing with mine only to have to downgrade back to 3.11 firmware.

Now that I'm able to print again, I find that I can't get the time remaining back too...

I was wondering the same thing;

I wish we could toggle back to the the way it was: print time remaining (hrs/minutes) vs. showing a Clock time that it will finish. (I prefer time remaining ). I'm on firmware 4.4.1/Mini+ with Wifi Module. If I turn off the wifi during a print (and disconnect from the internet), it still shows the Clock time. not min/hrs remaining.

I think the time when done only appears if the printer is connected to the internet (wifi or cable). Therefore, I am just able to see the time left when internet is off.

It should be nice being able to toggle between both of them nevertheless

My Mini+ used to tell me time remaining until I updated the firmware to 4.4.1. Why did this change? And why isn’t there an option in settings to toggle between the 2?

Also, the Z display shows the real value including the adjustment for gradients.

You can change that in the display settings, to show the nominal Z height.

I really like how the fw on the MK3S shows time remaining to end of print as well as time to next color change.

Yeah, me too. Would prefer to see that on the Mini too instead of the time the print will finish. That's just how my brain is wired.

I really like how the fw on the MK3S shows time remaining to end of print as well as time to next color change. Is there a way to make the Mini do this as well? I can do the subtraction but then I have to find a clock. Also, the Z display shows the real value including the adjustment for gradients. I really prefer the MK3S here, too, since I really don't care about the adjustment for gradient and just want to know what sliced layer it is on (i.e. indicate the current Z as drawn - not after correction). I suspect there isn't an option for that but any way to change the time remaining option?
