+//! Draw up to 10 chars of text, ':' and float number in format from +0.0 to +12345.0. The increased range is necessary
+//! for displaying large values of extruder positions, which caused text overflow in the previous implementation.
+//! @param chr first character to print on the line
+//! @param str string label to print, will be appended with ':' automatically inside the function
+//! @param val value to print aligned to the right side of the display  
+//! 
+//! Implementation comments:
+//! The text needs to be prerendered into the prerendered[] to enable left alignment of text str including the colon behind it.
+//! If we didn't want the colon behind it, the whole operation would have been solved with a single vsprintf call,
+//! but such line would look different compared to every other similar menu item
+//! So it is almost the same amount of code like before, but with added string prerendering
