Re: no 3d in systempanel please
Hi. thanks but, if you read my post i've posted that the selected component goes right to the dashboard, i'm asking just to gray out the double option that appears on the component bar, cause the "Add to System panel" is no longer needed, cause it's disabled. Of course if it can be easily done but t...

Re: General Flowcode String question
Hi Dave. Yes, Flowcode works like C does with a null terminator but also knows how long a string is - if there is no null before the end of the string then it will not go over the end. In your example with a non-null character in the 5th byte this will be sent too, but nothing else from the end of t...

Re: Error importing V5 macro
Hi. V6 uses a completely different file structure to v5, and this goes for the FCM files too. I have yet to add these to the converter, because whereas in v6 everything shares the same basic structure all files in v5 are different. As a work-around for now what I would suggest is import a FCF file f...

Re: DS1307 - RTC Time Keeper
Hi Jordy. In this version the Auto Day Of week calculation has been removed because this the algorithm used was to complex and eats up allot of program memory. especially for small uC this is a huge disadvantage. I don't know the details of your component, but if you create a property when it is dow...

Re: Wraping up Custom Components
Hi Acestu. Possibly, yes, but it all depends on the component you are creating. For example, if you have written a specific SPI interface component we could do a video on how to covert this component, but it would only be useful to a very select group of people. Also some people want their component...

We can help with either of these and how to define your component front end (what component macros can be called, etc) given more ...

Re: Basic Compiler Error - Any clues?...
No probs Brendan. BoostC and the launchers have had issues with virus scanners before now. I have changed the launchers a bit for the next patch but virus scanners can be pretty overzealous, so never know.
Cheers for letting us know.

Re: Basic Compiler Error - Any clues?...
Hi Brendan.
Can you post (or PM if needed) the fcfx program. Doesn't sound like there should be any issues with the program, but BoostC is pretty good at refusing to show any error messages just when you need them.

Re: Different variable types in calculation?
Hi. OK, no probs. Flowcode 5 will behave in simulation the same as v6, which is to keep as like to C as it can. What a C compiler should do is perform any intermediate calculations as 'int', meaning multiplying two bytes will result in an integer. The optimisation may be 'clever' though (read 'wrong...

Re: Different variable types in calculation?
Hello. What version of Flowcode is this, and are you talking simulation or download? For example in simulation Flowcode 6 will always use 32-bit for its intermediate calculations. The compact A=(b*c)/d should always work OK in this case. Can you post a flowchart that shows your problem? Cheers, Jonny

Hi Wayne. You mean to be able to label each byte with a custom label?

It would have to be done manually though as there are too ma...

Re: Problem scaling in dashboard panel
Hi. We are in the process of testing now.
Once this build is tested and we are confident we hope to release probably Monday.
This build introduces aspect-ratio locking to components so dials and such can not exhibit this problem.

Re: DS1307 - RTC Time Keeper
Hi Jordy. That error may be because the pins are not connected. The properties behave like pre-processor when converted to C. This means if you have a property called 'connection' and it is assigned to pin A 5 then what Flowcode does is take the line: connection = 1 And replace it with: $PORTA.5 = 1...

Re: Print String / Text + Variable ?
Evening. In a calculation icon do:
Where temp-string is a string variable , text is the text to print and variable is the integer or float to convert.
That will put the contents in temp-string
Jonny
Code: Select all
temp_string = text + string variable
That will put the contents in temp-string
