Resume Print not available in LCD

I just had to pause a print and (I think) I navigated to another screen and it "forgot" I had paused a print. There was no Resume available anywhere. Is this by design? You can't leave the pause menu?

Thankfully I had Octoprint connected and the Resume button there was active and worked so I could complete my print.....

Pause is intended for filament changes, dropping in non-printed parts (magnets, weights, nuts etc.), tweaking temperatures and similar light modifications to the process.  Once you navigate away from these you are effectively abandoning the print.

Cheerio,

Yeah, I get that, I had a thermal anomaly, paused it and went to check on and increase the extruder temperature. Nothing that I would have guessed ended the print. This could definitely be improved somehow, maybe a warning that navigating away from the "lightweight" section will abandon the print. It's just too easy to get into that state, IMHO.

Yeah this is a MK3.5 issue. the MK4 and MK3.9 both have a resume option when you go back to the print status page.
