@iamliubo Feature request for UIFlow 2.0.2 on Cardputer
On the main menu, can the characters on the arrow key buttons also be assigned to perform navigation?
IE so pressing right (Function + arrow) or pressing forward-slash (the same button without holding Function) both navigate right, and the same for left / comma?
It would also be nice to have that functionality in the App.list menu with the up/down arrows (semi-colon and period respectively)This way screens that only respond to arrow keys can be navigated without having to hold the Function key.
(Note: The new behavior makes perfect sense for screens using both cursor navigation as well as text-input, eg the wifi settings, where holding Function for navigation should remain required)
-
@bigal2301 Use a list instead of bytearray to hold the characters, then use "make text from list" to assign the list of characters to your string variable

@britontour You may wish to completely start over with the pairing process.
- Put your device in programming mode and use m5burner to do an 'erase'
- In uiflow2, click the button to select a device to connect to, and hover the mouse over your device icon. In the top right of that icon (when hovered over) should be a square you can click to edit the device info. In there should be an 'unregister device' button to fully delete it.
- Back in m5burner, reflash uiflow2 to the device and configure for your wifi.
I'm stuck at step 3. I connect to the device in WebBurner (you say m5Burner, but that doesn't support S3), then click on "Configure" and enter the wifi credentials. When I click Confirm, I get an error message:
Error
Request failed. Check the network and try again!Looking in the developer tab of Chrome, there is a 404 error attempting to download from https://uiflow2.m5stack.com/m5stack/api/v2/device/downloadBin
Is this a server issue, or a problem with my connection?
-
@britontour I found the m5burner that supports S3. I had an older version for my original Core, and didn't realize there was a new version.
It took a couple of tries, but I managed to bind and reflash the S3. I confirmed that the PUBLIC switch was active before flashing. Once complete, my screen still shows is at a PRIVATE device, and uiflow2 still shows a red dot next to it in the public list. The device info also shows it as PUBLIC. uiflow2 will not connect to it. -
@britontour If m5burner registered the device into uiflow, and it shows having a MAC and Token value (partially masked out), then it should be re-paired properly.
I'm unsure why your device can not connect to the server to report itself online.
I've just verified the process still works (I don't have a core s3 but used a cardputer which is stamp s3 based)I did just discover a bug in the 2.0.2 "develop" screen. It may be cardputer specific, but it incorrectly displays "private" in both modes. It's just a display bug though, it isn't effecting my connection
-
@dissy I see "PRIVATE" on the Develop screen of the S3, even though I configured it as Public. This is what I see in uiflow2 GUI when I click on the device button.
What server connection does it need? I may need to get IP or ports whitelisted at my office.
-
My only way to connect to my S3 is USB cable. I click on the run button, and a web terminal window appears. I select the COM port and press connect. Press the play button at the top and I see my python code downloading. at the end , I get an error message (see below). If the line number is referring to my python code, I don't see what the problem is.

Before it connects it will read "private" in yellow, and show "user account" as "none"
After it successfully connects this will change and should show "public" in green and your email address in "user account"What server connection does it need? I may need to get IP or ports whitelisted at my office.

My IT guy helped me work out the issue with the connection to the server. Access to ntp.aliyun.com was blocked. I changed it to our local gateway ntp server and I can connect to the S3 successfully over wifi!! Onto the next bug!!
-
A new Bug!
What does this mean? It doesn't change from 0%
-
My issue with Sync is also fixed. It was another issue with aliyun.com access restriction by my company's IT dept

OK, so I am finally making progress with my design, and I see so many features missing that really should be available for a modern development environment. There is no option for design reuse, code sharing, custom functions, etc. If I want to use some example code, I have to recreate each step in my project.
Moving from uiflow1 to uiflow2, I had to rebuild every block of my design. If I find something useful in an example project, I can't just copy/paste from one window to the other, again, I have to manually rebuild what I want in my project.
Is there a roadmap for planned features to be added to uiflow2?
-
@britontour Maybe it is time for you to expand into Arduino IDE where all your complaints are answered.

@iamliubo Why only DAC hat is available with m5staick? No more hats?

Because it take time to write and develop the code so that it doesn’t cause breakers in other code

Hi. I'm missing the 4-Relay Unit in the list of possible devices. Can you please add that back, as it exists in uiflow 1?
-
Hello @zendes
maybe my example (PlayZone: M5Dial_4RelayUnit_UIFlow2.0.1) can help out until the native 4-relay unit gets added in UIFlow2.
Note: you might need to modify the I2C pins for SCL and SCK dependent on the core you are using.
Thanks

Just got my Dials in, demo was neat. Used the burner to flash UIFlow 2.0.3 (only option it gives is that or alpha29) (Note, i'm not new to M5Stack or UIFlow)... built a quick for testing the RFID reader which was reported to work... using blocks (and verifying the python)... it does not.. (not in 2.0.3 apparently):

I have a problem with the NCIR-2 temp sensor not being available in the Unit selection window of UIFlow2. I decided to switch to the NCIR hat and forego the high temp alert capability of the NCIR-2 and low and behold, the hat was missing from the add hat section too.
These are current products for sale in the M5 store. Wasn't the NCIR-2 introduced over two years ago? I think there would have been ample time to integrate them into the latest UIFlow. -
Hello @wmatkins
re: NCIR hat : I think it should work by adding the NCIR unit but with a custom I2C setting, e.g. SCL=26 and SDA=0.
Note: I do not have the NCIR hat or unit so I cannot test this myself.
Thanks
Felix
