I'm trying to send messages:
" RESPOND TYPE=command MSG="Priming nozzle - {undo_retract.v} {FILA_LENGTH}"'
But they all show up the same regardless of what formatting I use.
Would be better if it would look something like this:

Can't find any setting particular to this.

I am not sure what you asking for

Better console formatting?

#

It doesn't have different syntax when I try to print with // command formatting response

#

Doesn't print the // or have different text colors/etc.

#

Trying to differentiate commands from info from warning/etc. messages

I guess there is a misunderstanding

#

What I see in your picture is not the regular color shema

#

For me your picture looks like fluidd

#

This here would be mainsail

#

Also M117 or SET_Display_Text are not echoing in the console. They are only visible during printing in the status panel

I'm not using M117

#

Picture was not from mainsail, was from random reddit post I found when trying to see why response was't formatting in mainsail

I still do not understand what on earth do you want!

#

klipper supports M117 RESPOND SET_DISPLAY_TEXT, RESPOND, {action_respond_info()}, {action_respond_error()} ad displays some messages and errors

#

Mainsail does in teh console:

  • echo the GCODE you type or the GCODE it sends in blue
  • {action_respond_info()}, RESPOND, or klipper internal messages in white
  • {action_respond_error()} or internal erros in red

M117 or SET_DISPLAY_TEXT will not shown in the console at all they are only visible while printing in the status panel

#

So is the color coding the problem because you maybe color blind or what is it what you need to solve

#

a sentence like better formating feels to me like I want peace on earth...

#

It loses the // prefix etc.

#

And doesn't distinguish between different types of respond mesages

#

I would like to have more color coding and syntax clarity bcz having klipper internal messages + my messages of various forms etc. all in one color is a bit of a mess

#

Also would be good to preserve temperature graph on the 'ERROR' screen - I would like to see what temperature the thermocouple(s) recorded when erroring out when a thermocouple/etc. error happens. Say, when flipped leads so temperature goes negative. Etc.

Yes the // is removed and sorry mainsail can not find out if it is a Klipper internal or a {action_response_info()} or in most cases a RESPONSE message. If you want that you are welcomed to be one of the many people that tries to convince the Klipper dev to accept PRs in that area …

#

And you mixing topics, the temp graph has nothing to do with the console at all.
