Hi ! Because I have a lot of issues related the weight calculation I close this issue to get a more "up to date overview" in the issue-tracker. |

Hi @OllisGit
I absolutely love this plugin, very nice work you have done.
However, sometimes I fail :-/ I forget to select the spool, before starting a print using another filament.
My guess is that others make the same mistake and have to recalculate the remaining filament on both spools, because both now shows wrong values for Used Weight and Remaining weight.
You then have to weigh each spool with filament and calculate the value you must enter into the field Used weight in order to get the correct value displayed in Remaining weight.
This is both tedious and errorprone.
Of course one could just enter all the values in a spreadsheet and get the value for Used weight, but I do think that it would be nicer to be able to click a button e.g. Adjust remaing weight where I can enter the measured weight of the spool with remaining filament. When pressing an OK button the Used weight should then be automatically updated (used_weight = total_weight + spool_weight - measured_weight). The end result would then be that the Remaining weight shows the correct value.
btw I was a little confused regarding the field Total weight when I first started using the plugin. I assumed that this was the weight of the filament and spool. But this led to a wrong value for Remaining weight which is eventually displayed in the sidebar.
Best regards
Poul Anker
