UiFlow 2.0 Alpha verison discuss(how-to, bug, feature request or sometings)

problem with some m5Burner version 3 on OSX:
different versions where released on the website but they are all identified 3.0.0, which is confusing...
- the one of April 9 2022, which doesn't work with atomS3
- the one of January 13 2023 which works
you should increased the last one to 3.0.1 to avoid any confusion for long time users
Thanks

Hi,
Could you unlock from UIFlow 2 the capability to code in micropython…
Thanks
-
@flex What do you mean as you can work direct in micropython without UIFlow using REPL
-
@IAMLIUBO With the S3's having the internal USB adapter, the S3's can now act as USB drives.
Can we get a UF2 boot loader so that Stamp and Atom S3's can now be programmed like Microbit and Circuitpython devices (USB storage devices.)
-
@ajb2k3
UIFlow make it easier to upload and test code through the cloud and also to draft the screen UI on the atomS3
-
@flex
And also rhrough the uIFlow cloud it is ok to develop through an ipad as it doesn’t offer USB-C to serial

@flex @IAMLIUBO @ajb2k3
bug in "get UTC time" and "get system uptime in seconds" for AtomS3 and UIFlow2/micropython 1.19.1 is probably related to a confusion handling Unix time 1970 and Unix time 2000 (as 30 years difference returned)
-
@iamliubo can someone from M5Stack please check the AtomS3 GitHub “Issues”.
I have one outstanding and another question to ask, but no one is there?
-
@flex Some people and groups cant use the cloud platform and so local programming like with the microbic and RPI is needed for them

This is true. If you build an internal application for a company on the internal network, the devices will not have cloud access or they have to switch always the wlan.
A Desktop uiflow version is still a good alternative to the cloud version !

Ui Flow 2.0 looks nice. But it lacks functionality.
Tested with a new Core S3 and wanted to test out the built in Camera. But how to do it either in micropython or with blockly ?Once you start selling the devices, the software must be ready and support all features of the device.
In my case I wanted to test the camera if it is possible to use the built in camera as a barcode reader, this would be a great application.
Second question to uiflow 2.0: Where have the examples gone ?
Even as an experienced programme, the demos are a good starting point for testing out a device or a unit.Third question: How about the support of the stackable-modules for the Core S3 ? How to access them in the UiFlow 2.0 ? can we reuse the modules for the older M5 Stack models ?
-
@sgu UIFLOW2 and the S3 generation are in alpha test only. From what I can see there are some issues with the pins that could mean that modules won’t work. There are no examples because none have been made yet. I am working on documentation but as UIFlow is in alpha and prone to change then documentation is slow going including the documentation of the various API’S buried in the firmware.

Hi there,
I tried to do something but uiflow2 is somehow confusing:
I was able to burn uifllw 2.0 on my atom s3 thank to adam!
Now I wanted to play with it: so I changed the bacground colour! this worked.
Now I was looking to other option as he one found for the stick C plus (IMU and so on) but those are
not available for the atoms3...
the second picture is from uiflow where all hardware options are listed... even the remote + options which is very promissing to me if I achieve that. but I cannot delete all at once...I cannot see the end of the window so I cannot delete everything...or clear to start from scratch on microsoft edge...
boring somehow
-
You need to click on "Hardware" under the picture of the Atom S3, then click on the hardware option to use it.IMU is there and was working.
-
I see- the page view was cropped too tight..
I did reset those now I see those...
this is idiotic but ar least I can get it now.
I wanted to get the remote +
Will it be enable in the future?
-
alas, I don't know

Once you start selling the devices, the software must be ready and support all features of the device.
In my case I wanted to test the camera if it is possible to use the built in camera as a barcode reader, this would be a great application.Now it only supports basic functions such as image display, and does not support high-level functions such as recognizing barcodes.
Second question to uiflow 2.0: Where have the examples gone ?
Even as an experienced programme, the demos are a good starting point for testing out a device or a unit.We will add the example as soon as possible. Considering that it is still in the alpha stage, we still need to do the final API review. In short, we will add the example as soon as possible.
Third question: How about the support of the stackable-modules for the Core S3 ? How to access them in the UiFlow 2.0 ? can we reuse the modules for the older M5 Stack models ?
Yeah, any module or uint or hat will support in uiflow2.0, just need a little time to made this, sorry for this, we will do our best.
