Summary

This branch improves the print-start workflow in the web UI and bridge logic, including auto-leveling support, safer print controls, and translation updates.

Features

Auto launch Print Start dialog on Orca upload and File Browser upload, and new Print button in Progress section (File browser print button still launches print start dialog)
--Legacy print bar still available, change via settings
Added auto-leveling option in the print start dialog
-Setting (in settings) now only effects the defualt selection
Added Start/Clear controls in the Progress section.

Fixes

Fixed object skipping from the print dialog. Previously it didn't actually skip the file. Delayed applying the object skip to AFTER the print starts
Fixed behavior where uploading a file during an active print could replace the currently printing file in Progress.
Added missing translation mappings across supported locales.

Optimize Upload-and-Print Workflow, Progress Card Controls & Slot Mapper parity #57

Hi @gangoke, thanks a lot for this PR! 🙏

The branch had diverged from the current master (it was based on the pre-0.9.22 state), so it wasn't auto-mergeable. Rather than lose your work, I integrated the changes manually on top of 0.9.22 — closing this as manually merged.

What was adopted:

Auto-open print dialog after upload — new print_start_dialog setting (1 = dialog auto-opens when printer is idle, 0 = keep the print bar). Added to config.ini, config_loader.py, env_loader.py (with file_ready_dialog as a backward-compat alias) and the settings UI (Printer category → "Start Print Behavior").
Per-print auto-leveling toggle — the auto-leveling checkbox now lives inside the print dialog and overrides the global default per print. Backend reads auto_leveling from the request body in both /printer/print/start and /kx/print.
Object-skip fix — your insight was spot-on: the skip command was sent before the print actually started, so the printer (not yet in printing state) silently ignored it. Now there's a retry loop (_apply_preprint_skip_after_start) that waits until kobra_state == "printing" and re-applies the skip, plus a pending-lock so the UI doesn't reset the skip state before the printer confirms.
Upload-during-active-print fix — uploading while a print is running no longer overwrites the thumbnail/file_ready of the running job.
New translation keys — print dialog + log filtering + ACE dry presets, across all 5 languages.

What I kept from 0.9.22 instead of the PR version:

The Settings panel (we'd already replaced the old modal with a master-detail panel), so only the new fields were merged in to avoid duplicate UI.
The configfile/motion_report stubs (Mobileraker fixes from #48) — your branch predated those.

This will ship in 0.9.23. Thanks again for the careful workflow analysis — the skip-after-start fix in particular was a real bug. 👏

Hi @gangoke, thanks a lot for this PR! 🙏 The branch had diverged from the current `master` (it was based on the pre-0.9.22 state), so it wasn't auto-mergeable. Rather than lose your work, I integrated the changes **manually** on top of 0.9.22 — closing this as *manually merged*. **What was adopted:** - **Auto-open print dialog after upload** — new `print_start_dialog` setting (`1` = dialog auto-opens when printer is idle, `0` = keep the print bar).
