OctoDash VS OctoPrint-Dashboard

The latest version of Pi OS (bullseye) broke the touch functions and some people are having luck rolling back the drivers. Head over to the github and read through because there are a few different fixes people have said worked for them. https://github.com/UnchartedBull/OctoDash/issues

It sounds like you only want it to run when you want, not automatically? I am not sure about Octoscreen, I only used that for a while before switching to Octodash ( no particular reason, I think it was the newer plugin when I was reloading the Rpi). I think Octodash asks if you want to run it automatically during the setup , so there is a procedure to run it only when you went. But it was easier to just run it all the time and I think there was a command to stop it when I didn’t want it. May not help, but though I would mention it. And I check and It does say you can choose to start automatically. https://unchartedbull.github.io/OctoDash/index.html. Using this screen HDMI

Also if you haven't heard of OctoDash I would definitely suggest you've it a try.

Octoprint has a built-in API server too which is documented here. There are several alternative frontends that use the API. Most popular being probably OctoDash and OctoScreen, and several mobile apps. But also the "Send to printer" button in your slicer uses that API, and of course OctoPrint's UI itself.

Hey i see there is a lot off progress with hacking and using the carthing for multiply applications... I hade an idea of using this to replace or add it to a 3d printer... There is an chrome extension that allows to control a 3d printer with serial output threw usb (gcode-sender). There are some really nice open source interfaces (octo-dash). (just an idea of how it look like). The main question is... can we hack carthing to send serial code through usb or from one of his test point on the board?

You may be able to get similar functionality with OctoDash and Octoprint.

OctoDash for example uses ratpoison over a fully fledged desktop environment. https://github.com/UnchartedBull/OctoDash

Update: According to the plugin dev this is an unfortunate side effect of not uploading through OctoPi.
