These get shown even if the motor blocks are not being shown, so I don't know why I missed them before. The values are 0 if no WeDo (...) (17 years ago, 11-Jul-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I don't have the WeDo hardware, so have not investigated further. Kevin (...) (17 years ago, 10-Jul-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
