I don't know if that solved your issue, but if you havent done so yet, you have to install the M5 Board Manager in the Arudino IDE board manager settings or M5 units will not appear in the board list.
Go to this page and follow the steps for your operating system: M5 Stack Cardputer How to Article

By the way, I ordered my cardputer today and when it arrives I will create some wall mount models for 3d printing. Watch the projects page. I already have some nice M5Stack wall mounts and travel cases up there. :)

I modified two open source models to create an M5Paper E-Badge holder. This is for a project where I use the M5Paper as an e-badge at conferences. It displays my company logo, name, title, and a QR code for my virtual contact card or me-card. You can find it on printables.com

What is the status of adding features to UIFlow2? I recently bought the core, core2, and core3, as well as the M5Paper. I am having a blast with blockly for the core, but most of the blockly code is missing in UIFlow2. For example, getting the current battery status is missing. There isn't an option for power in hardware, like there is in UIFlow. I also would like to request you do not change the GPIO again. For me half of the draw to the M5stack devices is that the modules and sensors work out of the box. Having modules that no longer work with the core3 due to a different GPIO pinout sucks. Keep up the good work and please take these as suggestions and not complaints. I love your product, I just want more software support in the form of UIFlow2. Thanks!

I got my M5Stack two days ago and just used flow to write a battery status monitor. The demo in uiFlow just showed a fake battery display to show how to draw lines and rectangles, etc. I created a battery status monitor that has these features:

• Button Presses:
  • A=Show Batt %
  • B=Bright Down
  • C=Bright Up
• Shows 4 battery status markers in a battery display like on your phone: red, orange, yellow, and green.
  *. When full they all show green.
• When charging the unit checks for the percentage of battery charge and displays the appropriate color on the display. The display even shows charging or discharging by having the appropriate color on the battery display.

Its hard to explain but it's awesome and I'm proud of it. I don't have privileges to post it here so I put it on my google drive. I hope thats allowed.

Let me know if you try it. I hope they add it to the demo's.

The app seems to be broken. I have tried compiling it as per the instructions on a windows 11 and on a mac. I get the same errors on both. Can anyone please help me? Here is the error code from VS.

Hi everyone,

I created a sweet pelican style carry case that holds two M5Stack Core units. Core, Core 2 and CoreS3 fit. It can also hold modules and an SD card.

Let me know what y'all think!

[Click here to see model on printables: (https://www.printables.com/model/681551-m5stack-core-core2-cores3-pelican-style-case)

When my M5Paper comes in I will make a case for it too.
Happy Holidays!

@ajb2k3 Thanks! It was a really fun project.

There is an M5Paper weather display that uses that very code. Maybe looking at it will help you figure it out. I am just getting started coding, but I compiled that weather project yesterday and remember seeing that code.

https://github.com/Bastelschlumpf/M5PaperWeather/blob/master/weather/Icons.h

I don't know if that solved your issue, but if you havent done so yet, you have to install the M5 Board Manager in the Arudino IDE board manager settings or M5 units will not appear in the board list.

Totally going to install this for my kiddo! Thanks for the make. 😀

Hi!

I am using my M5Paper as a weather dashboard using a sweet github project by Bastelschlumpf (project link

I live in the very backwards USA where we use Fahrenheit, miles, etc. I was able to modify the project to return data in F and mph, but I cannot figure out how to get the SHT30 temperature data to convert to F. Can anyone please look at the code and files and tell me exactly where and how to add a conversion code? I am very new to coding and need exact instructions like change line 435 in X.h to "code here", etc.

Thanks!

If you see ways I could have made the code smaller, or have ideas on how I can improve it please let me know. I stumbled my way through this as my first program other than "Hello World". The unit only reports battery percentage as 25%, 50%, or 75% as far as I can tell. I'm not sure how to get it to report exact percentages. The "isChargeFull" blockly doesn't seem to work at all. Maybe the unit never reports full. I would also like it to refresh the status more often, but again blockly seems to lack the support for it to change the battery monitor as the percentage changes. I have to restart the unit every now and then or the unit wont realize the percentage has dropped into the range of another color, even though they are flashing like I want and the button press to show percentage works to display percentages in 25% increments.

Sorry about the file issue. I fixed the permissions and I will take some screenshots and show y'all the code!

@csierra67 That was my goal. I wanted to change the demo they have in UIFlow to something that actually worked. They just had a battery logo with green bars. It was just for show. I wrote this to start learning how to use UIFlow. I'm certain it could be scaled down and added to any programs UI in the upper corner. :)

I re-mixed a wall mount for all of the core versions you can 3D print and stick to any surface with some wall mounting tape. Enjoy!!
