    Re: Another New NXT Utility —John Hansen
   (...) 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 (...)

        Re: Another New NXT Utility —Edwin Pilobello
   (...) Thanks a lot! I'm starting three classes today. Your utility will be utilized extensively. (18 years ago, 11-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —John Hansen
   (...) 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)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —Edwin Pilobello
   (...) It worked! Teaching the kids how to use View couldn't have been easier. NextScreen2 is now very much a part of my toolkit. Hurrah!! (18 years ago, 12-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —John Hansen
   (...) 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)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —Edwin Pilobello
   (...) 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)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —Alfonso Martone
     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)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —John Hansen
   (...) 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)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —Edwin Pilobello
   (...) "beautifully silent" ... hummm, and this is from the author of wav2rso ;-) I don't have stats to prove it, just a feeling. 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)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —John Hansen
     (...) I don't mind it making noises when I tell it to but squawking everytime I turn it on or clicking whenever I press a button is just a bit too much for me. 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)

     (...) turn (...) I (...) customized but (...) I agree John. I just turn the volume all the way down and it doesn't make any noise. It doesn't even click in samba mode. (18 years ago, 14-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —John Hansen
   (...) It occurred to me last night that I had totally misunderstood what you were saying. 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 (...)

        Re: Another New NXT Utility —Edwin Pilobello
   (...) Yes, thank you. Looking forward to it. It's going to be a good attention getter. (18 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
   
        Re: Another New NXT Utility —John Hansen
   (...) I have just uploaded a new zip. The new version should play the default NXT click sound on the PC when you press the buttons. If you put a wave file in the same directory as the NeXTScreen utility and name it "click.wav" then the utility (...) (18 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
