Is there an existing issue for this feature request?

I have searched the existing issues

As it stands the only way to change what values VLH uses is to open the printer settings menu and manually change the max and min values in the extruder page. This is time consuming and can be made to be a lot easier to access.

This idea was brought up already, #10069, and closed but I think asking for a faster method that doesn't risk changing a main setting permanently should be looked at.

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

When you drop the VHL menu down there should be a range setting that is auto populated with the values from the extruder printer settings. These should be able to be changed right here on this drop down menu, without affecting the setting on the Extruder Printer Setting page.

Layer Height Range [0.08-0.32] (0.4mm nozzle)

Describe alternatives you've considered
