Print preview on Device tab of print progress

On the ‘Device’ tab while printing and the camera off, it would be awesome to view the project as it is displayed on the ‘Preview’ tab except at the active print layer, and all completed layers in the location where the camera view would be.

I don’t run with the camera on and when I am on the ‘Device’ tab to see how much time is left I have a huge black box taking up most of the screen and I really find that takes away from the look of the tab.

Slic3r does this and it’s really cool. You see the graphic (like the ‘Preview’ tab we have) and can watch the graphic of the printhead move around and grow the print. It’s more than just eye-candy. It’s really helpful to see the spot what a troublesome print fails or some other issue.
