Flowcode v10 2D panel!

Post by jgu1 »

Hi!

For a while ago I made a project. Now I to add some more to the program, but all the component on the 2D display is very small and it is almost not possible to move anything, the common/text is upside down, the switches look strange if I try to zoom or increase the size all dissapear.

Before there was system and all correct. Is there any way I can restore the 2D?

Flowcode v10 Re: 2D panel!

V10 uses a different 2D panel to previous versions and some of the older v9 components only work on the old "legacy" 2d panel.

You should move these components from the legacy panel to a new 2d panel. Although this is not always straight-forward. The process is as follows:
  1. Add a new 2d Panel
  2. Convert non-2d-ready components to 2d equivalents
  3. Move components to new 2d panel
  4. Rearrange new components on new 2d panel
In your project, only the PWM components are "2d ready" and can be moved directly.

To convert "non-2d-components" to their 2d equivalents, first add an equivalent 2d component to a panel (either the new 2d panel or the old legacy 2d panel). Next, right-click each old component in turn and select "Selection...Replace..." and choose the 2d equivalent. Once all of these have been converted, you can delete the one you added.

In your project, the equivalents are:
  • Potentiometer (slider)
  • LED Mono
  • Switch Slide
It has been a long time since I converted an old v9 project, so I have done part of this process for you (attached). It is not complete and there are some components that remain unconverted - see below. It has probably taken me as long to write this post that it was to make the conversion, so it is not a difficult task.

Unfortunately, there is no direct equivalent for the labels. You will need to recreate these on the 2d panel using the "Text" 2d primitive component in the "Creation" component menu.

Also, the UART does not seem to show. This will need to be replaced manually with a new component and then updated within your project.
