I have a question about displaying text during print, as I'm trying to get the new tokens in from Kisslicer.

M70 P5 (Total  <TTOTAL>)
M70 P5 (Elapsed <TELAPSED>)
M70 P5 (Remain <TREMAIN>)

I'm using Sailfish (Makerbot) firmware, but I assume it's about the same with Marlin. I found the M70 command, which is working, together with the P5 command which is causing to show the text for 5 second. But when I add three of these lines after each other, it's only showing very briefly the first two M70's and the last one 5 seconds.

M70 P5 (Total  1:35:48)
M70 P5 (Elapsed 3:18)
M70 P5 (Remain 1:32:30)

Is there a possibility to do that in a way they are all displayed 5 seconds? (without a G4 waiting command in between).
Or -even better- is there a way to show the info in one instance on three lines of the display?

Not a very major concern, but it would be nice if it worked.

Thanks!
Bart
