Some new exciting changes to Flowcode V10

Licensing changes

• Flowcode V10 is now free for makers and hobbyists with full functionality for a limited range of devices which include; Arduino Uno & Nano, RPI etc.

Components

• Can now view component code

• Components are now free and open-sourced so you can use existing components and tailor them to your own requirements.

• Dedicated 2D primitive components

Simulation

• Improved variable values display on simulation – view and edit variable values during simulation and ICD

• Interrupt on Change diagram visual improvements

• View and step through the simulation of component code (Pro Licence only)

• Ghost support for EB0058 ESP board

• Icon lists now show disabled icons in a muted colour

• Show variables on oscilloscope and data recorder

• The text colour of flowchart icons can be altered

Application

• Create separate .c and .h files

• Show help/wiki in separate browser

UI Trees

• New UI Trees tab within Global Settings for customising Project Explorer and Icon Lists

User Tools

I/O ports

• Connected components lists on analogue/digital windows

• When using Calculation icons (etc), pins can be dragged to the expression

Variables

• Combines global and local variables (which are also available separately)

• Show values during simulation

• Float variables are now shown to a user-defined precision (defaults to “%g”)

Built-in Functions

• Single-dimension arrays show individual elements in Watch and Project Explorer lists

• There are some new built-in functions available

API calls : GetPanel and GetPanelName, SetSimSpeed and GetBackgroundColour

API call for controlling simulation speed (SetSimSpeed)

Events

• There are some new events available

Miscellaneous

• TODO list - auto generated icon list based on icons containing TODO in the comment. For example. TODO this icon needs work or TODO this will need changing.

• Creating web-based applications

• New 2D style panel allows multiple panels where you can add, rename or delete.
