Opening Previous Projects

[chipfryer27]

Hi

Only noticed this now.

In a previous project I used an EB1 Comboboard (EB083). When I open the project in v10 I see the Combo has changed to an EB2 Comboboard (BL0114). However this now means Commands used for the EB083 such as "Start" are no longer valid and I need to go through the program changing as needed.

I see that no EB1 boards appear to be supported, are they now redundant as far as v10 goes? I appreciate that for new projects using my EB1 boards I could just use "generic" components if needed, but to convert previous code to v10 seems a lot of trouble.

Leave this with me for now and I will try to get an answer today.

Hello,

The old EB1 components should still be there. They are hidden by default but you can find them via the search facility.

I'm surprised your old program has become broken. Can you post it so we can try and replicate.

Hi

It's not urgent or very important for me, I just noticed.

I do use the boards when developing as they are convenient, but obviously don't make it into the final cut, so it isn't too big an issue for me especially if they are just hidden. However perhaps those that use the boards in education might be more affected?

The attached is written in v9 but when opened in v10 the combo is changed from an EB1 to an EB2.

Hi.
I have fixed the component so you should not have to make any changes to old existing projects for them to work in FC10.

The component will be pushed onto the update system as soon as possible.
If you would like to try the component before the updates are pushed.
Browse to this location using file explorer, it's hidden by default so just paste the link into your address bar.

Code: Select all

C:\ProgramData\MatrixTSL\FlowcodeV10\Components

Replace the existing file with the attached file.
If Flowcode is already open, then you will need to reload your project for the new components to work
If you run any component updates, then the components you added will be overwritten with the updated version.

Can you let me know how it goes, please?

That's great!
Thanks for the spot and for confirming all is ok with the updated component.
