Just had a look a the CCS demo, looks good.
Ok, I realise Flowcode wont get all the bells and whistles on the IDE, will see if I can get it to compile a simple program over the weekend.

Re: prototype-manufacturing-service-10-boards
Hi
I've been dealing with ProtoPIC for a couple of years now for components and sensors etc. Always been reliable.
They seem to be part of a larger electronic /software design company in Scotland. Maybe that's where the boards are made.

Re: fc_licensing.exe Antivirus warnings
Hi After having numerous problems with Kaspersky. (Which I have used for years and personally still prefer over any other package) I tried AVG and Norton. Both worked without any problems they both added FC6 by default. I settled on Norton as it was cheaper for a 3 PC licence than AVG was for a sing...

Touch Sensor Introduction: I recently spotted this simple touch sensor on a component site. They are only £6.00 with free postage. Having my love of playing with sensors, a couple were ordered to play with. This is my first test project using them. This project is a simple demonstration using the A...

Re: ECIO DS pic
Hi I've used the ZIF approach for a few years. I had both the PIC and ARM ECIO and 1 EB061. I found swopping the modules needed a bit of care as they could be easily damaged, (as could the sockets on the EB061). Now I have the 16bit one and a second EB061, so still have to swop. Anyway, they have ne...

Re: Sparkfun (Arduino) Pro Micro
Hi
I know the genuine Leonardo works with FC6. This board is supposed to be compatible, but looking at the Sparkfun webpage, it looks to have a non standard bootloader, maybe this has something to do with it.
Never seen one of these boards before so not able to offer any more.

You will need to buy the professional version in addition to the processor pack i.e. PIC to access that component. The free versions only has the basic components like LED, LCD ADC etc. Full info is available he...

Re: Arduino Programming In Flowcode v6
I have an SSD in the main system and normal hard drive in the laptop.
Dont think it can be related to that though.
My Arduinos work fine in their own IDE, and they did in the previous way of programming them in FC where I had to alter the compiler settings manually.

I've had a similar problem with the latest Kaspersky. First it kept deleting the licence file. I managed to cure this by adding it to the exclusions. But then it started to freeze while compiling. As of now I've not got a fix for this, as I've not had time. Had to uninstall Kaspersky and currently r...

Hi AO As I replied to your other post, It may run under Linux using WINE Certainly more likely to work on a PC than a tablet. Don't think it will make any difference between 32 or 64 bit.

Hi Interesting idea :) I believe FC will run under Linux using WINE on a PC , though I've never tried it. You can always download the free 30day trial and give it a go. Dont forget the FC6 install file is over 200MB You wont be able to connect the Matrix hardware to the tablet. You'd have to export ...

Hi Peter
If you right click on the icon and select annotations
You can the uncheck show
This leaves the icon present in the flowchart, but stops showing the content.

Re: 8" TFT display, RA8875 chip
Hi
Have you looked at the 7" display form 4D Systems.
I think it should work with the same Visi macros that are in Flowcode 6 for the 3.5 and 4.3 displays.
I been using these quite a bit recently
Although this one looks to be a lot less expensive than the 4D 7 inch one.
