Probe Active LED

Pre-release version 1.2113 running in demo mode

I would like to see a Probe Active LED somewhere in the lower half of the screen so that it wouldn't be necessary to open the Probe screen to verify the touch plate is making contact before doing a simple M31 probe. Maybe the border around the Probe button could light up.

I didn't realize it was this easy.

Using the screen editor, copy/paste the existing Probe Active LED and place it where ever you want it (I placed it on top of the Probe button). Change the layer to 1 and save settings. I'd still like to have it as a border around the button, but haven't tried that yet.

Isn't that what the "probing" LED is on the bottom of every screen?

No - that doesn't come on with the Probe Active LED.

The probing LED is on when the machine is probing (G31). The probe active LED is on when the probe input is active.
