What is the problem?

I'm thinking about testing the release client 1.11.0rc1. One of the changes is the transition from the Custom Control Editor (plugin) to Custom Control Manager (core feature). I'd like to know what I would've to do to migrate my current setup from the Custom Control Editor to the Custom Control Manager.

What did you already try to solve it?

  • Searching the web for details / docs
  • Asking on Mastodon

Have you tried running in safe mode?

You can download this in OctoPrint's System Information dialog ... no bundle, no support!)

I don't think you have to do anything, your previous custom controls from the other plugin were being saved into the core settings of OctoPrint already.

There is one visual issue in the settings of the Control Manager that has already been addressed in code and will be part of the next rc release. [1.11.0rc1] Custom Control Manager: "horizontal_grid" layout is not rendering correctly in the settings · Issue #5096 · OctoPrint/OctoPrint · GitHub, as well as exposing the width and offset parameters.

This is correct. Custom controls are a core feature, and have been since ... 2013? All the abandoned editor and the newly created manager do are providing a configuration interface for that.

Oh, I didn't realize that. Thanks for the clarification! Therefore, updating to the release client should lead to picking up my current setup and visualizing it within the Custom Control Manager.
