I've been following the RubyMonk tutorial, and I typed this into the Ruby console.

loop do
"this line will get executed infinitely"
end

The console gave an error message, and then it switched to Off. I deleted the code, and then tried to ...

Tor:
I can follow some of the schematic, but other parts I don't understand. It works nicely though. I will work some more on studying it.

Trog:
I will have to learn a bit more about Ruby, but I understand most of the code.


I'm off to a good start, thank you both.

Not to 'bump' this post, but I wanted to add that a module which could build and place other stored modules would be incredibly useful.

Very cool! I am looking forward to using that in my next project. Could you show it hooked up to the flowboard? I am wondering if it is much easier, more complicated, or about the same..

I built this schematic. Basically I am able to click on the square in the window, and drag it around on the screen.

I would like to know if there is an easy way to dynamically create a new square so that when I drag the mouse away from the square ...

That was it. I thought it was an upper level switch, which would set the enable mouse moves to true for all components connected to it. Your way makes much more sense, though. Thank you.

Yes, I actually tried that right after I posted, it still doesn't output the coords from the window. However, I did hook it up to the mgui, and it returns coords when I mouse-over that module.

Having trouble recreating the example from the manual. I enabled the mouse move messages on the mgui. The cursor changes when it moves in the window, but no coords are printed in the ruby console.

I was thinking about how great it would be if flowstone had an electronics part library. Essentially so a user could digitally map out resistors, capacitors, ie basic circuitry to work with the flowboard, and see everything in action digitally, before it was built.
