Hello,

Flowcode v9 now uses a similar GLCD font system to Arduino. You can set the font colour by calling the SetForegroundColour component macro. The font and size is adjustable from the component properties.

Hi David, We have changed the way string concatenations work so you can now do things like string = "a" + "b" + "c" + "d" all on one line. Please can you send me your project file so we can investigate the problem for you, looks like it could be a corner case bug in the new system. For reference her...

Hi Jorgen,

Have you seen this video? It might help to explain things in v9.

Let me know your thoughts.

Hi Alan,

I've now added in this functionality for you via a new property to enable it and a new macro to set the address.

I'll get it pushed to the update system shortly.

Hi David, I went back into the office for you and picked up the board. However on getting back home I realised I had the MCP23S17 the SPI version and that worked fine as is!!! I'm back in tomorrow so I'll endevour to test while I'm there. I have looked at the code again and can't find any problems b...

Hello,

Really appreciate the comment and really glad it's working well for you. I've been doing a lot with PID recently and have learnt a lot from doing it which I applied into the component.

I beleive should be fixed in v8 now. Do you need it for v7 also?

Hi David,

Sorry I didn't pick one up when I was there. Annoyed about that.

Is it urgent for you to get this working? If it is then I can head on over and pick one up for you.

Hello,

I've passed this onto a collegue who should be able to help.

Hello,

I'm guessing it's down to the component properties, make sure the slave macro and macro parameters are correct.

If this doesn't help then please post what you have and I'll have a look for you.
