| | Reusing Terminals in NXT-G Blocks
|
|
This is for NXT-G Block programmers: I've written some description how one can use one terminal for multiple purposes, and dynamically change it's front panel and tooltip text. See details, and download VIs needed here: (URL) Ziv NXTasy.org (18 years ago, 6-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Thanks Dick, I also found info on how arrays are handled in the Executable File Spec. I didn't see it before. My cut on this is that I will use single-dimension arrays in non-time-critical areas and avoid mult-dimensional arrays alltogether. It (...) (18 years ago, 6-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

| | Improving the firmware?

After the release of the source code for NXT firmware version 1.04, I was wondering if anyone is considering to open a community project to create an improved firmware. I think an improved firmware which is compatible with version 1.04 opcodes (so (...) (18 years ago, 6-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

I published online a new block, which allows NXT-G developers to create "library" NXT-G blocks, i.e. blocks with commom input/output wiring scheme but different functionality. It allows efficient encapsulation of many blocks into one user-friendly (...) (18 years ago, 5-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
