Product Suggestion - PrusaSlicer
I haven't seen this in any of the forums. Forgive me if it's a duplicate.
In the slicer, make a tab with the settings that we see on the printer screen itself. Don't make us figure out that 'flow' is 'extrusion mulitplier', etc. Use the same wording as is on the printer screen. These settings, when set, will change the current name in the other tabs. THen, when we want to tweak the z, the flow, the speed, etc, we can do it all on one screen in the slicer. Then we will save the .3mf and it will set up the machine the same the next time we print that part.
this could make a gazillion people happy!
RE: Product Suggestion - PrusaSlicer
Welcome. The correct place to raise a bug report (issue) or to make a feature request is the Prusa Slicer github project. That is located here https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues
Items raised there are tracked and get an issue number.
When opening a new issue please follow all the posted guidelines. More importantly please do a thorough search using multiple likely keywords to check that there isn't already an existing one. With over 1900 open issues and many more closed ones it is likely that its already exists.
Make your request clear and concise.
Feature requests are also best done as one feature to one post as they can be tracked separately.

Surely not that many!
The base problem is that the wording on the printer is still in part from it's fork of Marlin and for Prusaslicer it's fork from Slic3r.
I wouldn't be surprised to see posts from irate Prusaslicer users if it were tweaked (at great expense) to conform to Mk3 usage - and ditto Mk3 users.

@boethos3
The answer here isn't to change the the software's UI to match one type of printer, PrusaSlicer supports many different printers, the answer is to learn to use the software and whatever printer you may be using. If you were to take a screen shot of your post, store it for a couple of years, continue printing and gaining experience during that time, and then open it up and read it again, two years later. You would understand how naive this sounds, there's a reason you haven't' seen it on any other forums.
However if you feel strongly about it, as Neophyl mentions, you can open a request on GitHub.
Good Luck

Thanks for the replies. I'll post it there. If Prusa is forking it, perhaps they could add it in. We'll run it up a flagpole and see who salutes it.
