(...) This evening I uploaded a zip containing two versions of the utility. The newer version uses a bitmap of the NXT and the screen image is not scalable but otherwise it functions identically to the second version I posted. For classroom purposes (...)

(...) I just uploaded a new nextscreen.zip with both versions of the NeXT Screen utility. The one which uses an image of the NXT now supports scaling via the right-click popup menu. You can scale from 1x to 4x with several fixed steps in between. I (...) (18 years ago, 11-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) That's wonderful. I am very glad that it has proven to be a useful tool. Make sure you've got the very latest zip from late yesterday afternoon which has all the hot keys working as well as JPG and PNG image support. John Hansen (18 years ago, 12-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) How about a "click" sound when the keys are hit? Or perhaps a little blur on the keyface to indicate that it has been clicked? It shouldn't need to be, but the Wii generation seems to need multi-media reinforcements. (18 years ago, 12-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Everyone is asking for a new feature, so I'm going to ask one for me... :-) What about Mac OS X support for NextScreen? -- alf (18 years ago, 12-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) I have updated both versions of the NXT Screen utility to play the "! Click" sound on the NXT when a button is pressed. Since I delete all the standard sound files as soon as I can after installing the official firmware that means my NXT (...) (18 years ago, 12-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Having the kids personalize their NXT programs using sounds converted using wav2rso does a lot of good! Two girls were (...) (18 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

I understand that kids probably love it - especially when it's been customized but I (...) (18 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Maybe the NXT had been clicking all along when you pressed the buttons on the utility and that you were wanting specifically to also have the PC make a noise (...)
