Ability to simulate communication between programs for multiple picaxes and more customizable Serial LCD/OLED window with contrast support.
Maybe it should also detect where your eyes are using a webcam and adjust the darkness of the display to simulate the poor viewing angle of LCDs as well (!)more customizable Serial LCD/OLED window with contrast support.
I dont know about LCD's but some OLED displays have a command to set the contrast.How would the program editor control the contrast on the LCD, when the contrast control is a physical control, normally a preset potentiometer ?
That said, from my personal perspective, once we as component users start to use chips and devices which are more specialised or with control commands which are not the more mainstream (for example using an LCD controller that is not Hitachi HD44780 compatible or a RTC chip other than the DS1307), we cannot expect Rev Ed to provide a simulation for every alternative chip/device that exists.Avoid having to display the same image/object on the screen for lengthy periods of time. This will cause a burn-in which is a common problem with all types of display technologies. Blank the screen after a while or dim it very low by adjusting the contrast. Better still; implement a screen saver feature.
It's not so much about it being new rather that it's obscure.So its new, doesn't mean its features cant be simulated.
I dont think anyone is saying it cant be simulated, its just that its a fair bit of coding for what would be a function used by a very small minority.So its new, doesn't mean its features cant be simulated.
And six months later we have.......... nothing!With the first anniversary approaching in a couple of days its looks like this thread has been a pretty futile exercise....

When PE6 isn't in Beta.Today is the 2nd anniversary of the birth of this PE Editor wishlist, and PE6 is with us now.
What could be a better time to start the X3 wishlist ?
Don't forget, PE5 never got finished. 'Simulate->Connect' was not implemented, just like in PE6 now.When PE6 isn't in Beta.
When Rev Ed announce they intend to build an X3.What could be a better time to start the X3 wishlist ?
