Is there a way to create custom UI percentage entry field that can be queried in custom gcode?

If you don't want the bot asking for logs, just use #NoLogsNeeded, as you can read in #readme
And what exactly do you want? Some UI element showing you a percentage value, just like a fan?

Yes, precisely like a fan.

What do you want to do there?

#

it should work exactly the same like the pin example but with pwm defined in the pin

Thank you. I want to define a switch, as in the first example. That controls whether or not an override is in effect. Along with a percentage limit for the override. All of this to control the noise level of a part cooling fan, but still allow it to increase our decrease (within allowed range).

as said you get either a 1|0 value with pwm: false or a 0..1 value if pwm: true. The UI displays:

pwm false -> switch
pmw: true -> slider
The rest is up to you
