But 20 seconds is extremely slow. Is this happening on all projects or just a specific project?

Is this in v10?

In v10, if the Variables tab is open, it might try to update all the variables during simulation. This can be prevented if you have the simulation speed set to "Fast (no updates)".

Hi Stefan,

I don't know if this helps, but in the latest update for v10 you can set a filename property to have a default file extension when the file dialog is opened. You set it up similar to the following:

A new core update has been released for Flowcode v10. If you are running a version of Flowcode v10 prior v10.0.1.18, a notification will appear allowing it to be downloaded and installed (assuming you have "Check for core updates on launch" enabled in the Global Settings). v10 core update.png This n...

CSV format is essentially data separated by commas. If strings have spaces (or commas) then the strings need to be within quotes. There is no implicit formatting information in CSV, so the import process into excess will need to specify which numeric values are dates (etc). But that is a manual proc...

There's no full example and it would depend on the nature of your data. But I've created a very simple chart in the attached project. If you simulate the program it will clear the chart, then add 5 data points and then enter a continuous loop. At this point, right-click the chart and select "show st...

Another option is a Flowcode App Developer project.

Use a COM port component to receive the data and then write it to a CSV file. Or alternatively, write it to a chart component and you can see in within Flowcode (plus you can save as a CSV file by right-clicking the chart).

I think the easiest way is to use a fixed-width font like "Courier New". There could be others, e.g. "Comic Sans" and "Lucida Sans Typewriter".
