UIFLOW does not save python code

UIFlow cannot save python code.You can save .py file in visual studio.

The only way to get custom code to save within UIFlow is to...

add it to the Execute block (under Advanced)
Create your own custom blocks with http://block-maker.m5stack.com/

@sysdl132 Yes, but it is confusing because I can save it, but nothing is saved :-)

No problem, already installed (I'm a developer). Its just dangerous if someone save a file in UiFlow and then nothing is in it. So maybe m5stack should disable the save button if you are in py-code. :-)

@m5stickfreakler only the blocks are saved not micropython code. This has been the same since the beginning.

What will you say with that? I know it is not saving micropython code - that's the point!
Again: If I have the python code in front of you and then save it, then it is not saved and you don't see that.
A good UI does not allow such things.
So in my opinion there are two solutions:

It is not possible to use the save function if switched to python code
or it saves a py-file if switched to python code

Just use vs code lol
You can run uiflow dual-box to check for m5 libraries code and simply copy strings to vs code
