    I have done this, but my display still shows all three extruder symbols. My LCD is the new white PCB version. Maybe there is a slight difference between the red and the white. I noticed that a case that I printed for it (designed for the original red version) isn't an exact fit. I had to do some trimming to get it to work. I can't imagine why the firmware requirements would change though.

    I would love to get a copy of Ziggy's original code to play around with...

    EDIT: I should mention that I have the R1+, so my firmware may not play nice with Marlin 1.0.2 changes... just a thought

    I abandoned the idea of using Ziggy's code a long time ago as it was never mainstreamed into Marlin. You are much better off using the 1.1.0-RC3 code if you want those display enhancements as much of that is already there. No need to maintain your own version of these patches. Marlin still has a dumb way of handling babysteps and Ziggy's presentation is better, maybe someday the Marlin developers will give us that.

    Thanks.

    I guess my question then is this:

    Is the 1.1.0-RC3 ROBO ready? Or are you suggesting I try to take just the LCD bits and pieces?
