Update :
I have found that the code I have that updates the Layer number and time remaining is in the file dogm_lcd_implementation.h, in the function : lcd_implementation_status_screen
The display message portion of the code looks like this :
sprintf (LCDline1, "Reading SD Card ..");
u8g.setPrintPos(2,37);
u8g.print(LCDline1);
Is it possible that I am writing this code in the wrong function,

I have been modifying my Marlin code as I find the XYZ detail on the Graphical LCD meaningless for my use.
I much prefer to have the display show the Layer count and the Estimated Time Remaining for the print.
For example : L004/076 e01:12 -- indicates that the printer is busy with Layer 4 of a total 76 layers, and estimated time remaining is 1 hour, 12 minutes.
So far I have this working rea

Works well, if you donĀ“t move the extruder by hand while you change filament.
Thanks Olaf
OK, so because I will almost certainly move the head when changing the filament, the print is destined to fail.
As a solution, would it be safe to add code to the 'resume' function so that it activates a Home for X and Y axis before resuming the print ?
If so, have I correctly identified the

Not wanting to 'fix' something that isn't broken, but would like to understand this :
question 1 : how do I identify what version of the Marlin firmware I have. I do have the arduino sketch that is loaded on my Arduino at the moment, but do not know if it is the latest version of the Marlin firmware that is available online. How would I check ? Is there a version number in the code somewhere ?

There is a function that is called whenever a G1 and G0 gcode is received and the parameters include axis and mm. You can create a global var and each time that z changes you increase it and this is a layer counter.
Problem is if you use autobed level then Z is always changing.
There is also a function for lcd display of text.
Many Thanks. That is what I am looking for.

Hi all
New to 3D print ( 1 week now ) but a little experience with Arduino.
Just assembled a kit ( Prusa i3 ) and really loving this new 'toy'.
Have the RepRapDiscount Full Graphic Smart Controller connected to the Arduino and display is good.
But can not find anything online about adding the layer number to the display.
I understand that the Marlin firmware can't know the total number of la
