Edit gcode-Headers

[neokil 0]

Hello everyone,

 

I just recently switched my DIY-Printer to use Klipper with Mainsail and there is a neat View for your GCode-Files that will use the Headers in the File to show attributes like Layer-Height, Object Height and so on. It could also show Filament-Type and Nozzle-Diameter which would be very helpful but is looks like Cura does not add those Headers into the File.

Did I just not find this Option or is there maybe a Plugin that can add more Information to the GCode-File?

For clarification, I am talking about those Headers in the beginning of the file like `; Filemant used: 5.7407m`
```

You can add anything you want to the start of the gcode in the Machine Settings (see the Printers pane of the preferences)

This page has a list of all the parameters you can include in the start gcode snippet:
