It would be really helpful to see what a printer’s temperature currently is in Dashboard.

I would absolutely second this suggestion.

My Form 3 is in an industrial unit with minimal insulation from the outside environment and although there is a gas heater with the pilot light on that takes the edge off the cold, it can take over an hour to reach 31 C before printing can start. Also I was not able to find any information on the suggested environmental operating temperature for the Form 3.

Being able to know the temperature in dashboard would be very useful.

Great suggestion.
