Ok. I’ll be the first to respond. Here are 3 issues I’ve encountered so far.

1st, the menu bar (aka burger menu) disappears after entering and exiting the menus a few times, this happens on both the 1F and remote laptop (source of screencaps).

2nd, the background in the ā€œG-codeā€ scroll area is extremely distracting and makes plenty of the G-code non-readable to us mere ocular challenged folk.

and lastly, but definitely the most bothersome, after loosing the ā€œmenuā€ bar, the only method to shutdown/restart is via a looooong power button hold, or killing the main power, which, even after being able to save some settings, on restart reverts to the ā€œinitial startupā€ screen with none of the previous items populated. I didn’t make a video of it but will if the devs need it.

Thanks, Eric
