#Pressure advance settings in ms instead of s

hello, is there any possibility to change the settings from seconds to milliseconds at the PA section? the settings shown in seconds is a bit outdated in my point of view. The slider at the klipper screen is also very hard to adjust if you are trying to set up 0,03s or 0,025s. it would be better to say 30 ms or 25ms.
is there any workaround? or is itt possible to change it in the future? I guess there is nobody setting up PA at 1s. that was a thing of the past I assume.

We are glad to help and chat with you on our Community Discord, but if you need help and want the best support possible you should, follow a few simple rules:

If you are using some old Ender 3 this still applies with seconds

#

Also we are just executing Klipper gcodes. So changing this now, will outdate every single tutorial using Mainsail and would do some internal processing, that sends a gcode with a different value than you have inputted. Sure it's just divided by 1000 but not every person can do that transalation

#

On the slider of klipperscrenn we have no influence. That is not our software

#

Tbf every single bowden setup can lead to higher pressure advance values. For top of the line machines, this ofc don't apply

This can be a solution. For that you should open a FR, but tbh, I don't think that this would make it into Mainsail, as hiding more options into submenus isn't something that we like to do.
Just open up a FR (maybe one is already open, no idea) and mete will give you some answer.

#

In the end I don't really get the idea behind this. If everything is using s and not ms, why would you want it showing ms in the first place? (in Mainsail)

#

It would just "cut off" O.O

#

You would still need to do the translation if you are doing a pressure advanced test, if you want to set it through the UI and klipperscreen would still function the same.
