I seem to remember someone asking if a slider value could be read and actioned without needing to press a 'read' button.

The answer is 'yes' if using a timer, as shown in the attached script.
Note that the new value only gets read when the slider is released.

Code: Select all

cls
let pinNo = 1
let Brightness = 512
print "Control PIN"
textbox pinNo
print " Brightness"
textbox Brightness
slider Brightness,0,1024
timer 200,[SetBrightness]
'button " Set Brightness",[SetBrightness]
button " Exit ", [TestExit]
wait

[SetBrightness]
io(pwo,pinNo,Brightness)
wait

[TestExit]
end

Thanks Electroguard (and Mike)

With a few simple changes to your example we now have an awesome SERVO tester...

Code: Select all

cls
let pinNo = 2
let Servo = 90
print "Control PIN"
textbox pinNo
print " Servo"
textbox Servo
slider Servo,0,180
timer 200, [SetServo]
'button " Set Servo", [SetServo]
button " Exit ", [TestExit]
wait

[SetServo]
io(servo,pinNo,Servo)
wait

[TestExit]
end

I am continually astonished and amazed at how easy it is to implement code with Mike's espBASIC !!!

For me there is simply NOTHING else that compares.
