Just the 2 50ms frames before, since NXTScreen has the max refresh rate of 50ms.

First, I'd like to put in a request for a mod to move this unrelated stuff to another topic if necessary.

@nxtboyiii, I don't think you understand how it works. In order to do what you want, the NXT would need 3 screen buffers, and the computer would need a tool that is capable of polling all 3 and displaying them each with 1/3 opacity.

???
I'm just saying this:
First, the computer saves a screenshot of NXTScreen as a .png, or whatever.
50 ms later, it saves another screenshot as a different file.
After another 50 ms, it saves the final screenshot.
It then displays all those images on NXTScreen each at 33% opacity.
Then it shifts back all the images, and repeats.

That would require perfect sync of the NXT program with the tool the computer is using. Also, you don't save files for stuff that temporary, you use RAM.

John,
why isn't it posible to make *.h files work with BCC just like *.nxc files (for text highlighting and debugging)?

To add to what Helmut suggested, what about a way to easily add key words for it to highlight?

Perfect sync? This "tool" would be an option when you right click. It would be built in to NXTScreen.

It would need a way of knowing that it isn't grabbing a frame that is half-built. It would also need to get frames 1, 2, and 3 without mixing up, or getting (for example) 2, 2, and 3.

I think you would be better off making your own PC program, and have the running NXT program supply the frames.

hi yall -
nxtboy3, matt:
I strongly doubt that this is still about a wish list issue you are talking about...?
John already posted his reply:

I would recommend to clean this thread and start a new one!
(wish list threads shouldn't be for discussing IMO)

to make sure that real wishes will not get dropped between discussion, the following was my wish in memory:

Yes, you are right, but it seems more often than not, you are the one that starts the conversations.
