No I am not meaning on the top of every screen like the temp. Meaning more along side the print progress. But at the time I did not see you had this in the side menu, now I watched again I have seen it.
I really love your firmware, it has a really great look and menu is really simple

By main screen I guess you mean the top of every single menu, the current "temperature bar" in my code. The thing is, It needs to be compatible with dual extruder and also with this "split view mode" thing, and Z height takes 6 digits max (w/o icon neither measure unit "mm"), there's no room for anything else without swaping/scrolling it.
On the other hand, I can't think a situation where I find necessary to see the z height all the time, I only need to know the exact height if there's a print in process/paused or the printer is controlled by USB, otherwise I will only need to know if it's up or down, that unlike temperatures, is something I just need to look at the printer to know.
Even If I want to move the buildplate without printing, I think I would create another option inside the buildplate menu to move it "manually" and to see Z height.
I mean, you can't do anything but raise/down the platform from the main menu, why do you find useful to know the exact position outside the print screen?

@Render I'd love to try when you have a RC. I'll keep following this threat.
