Being the rookies that we are, my team and I still lack a few bits of knowledge regarding LabView. We would highly appreciate any sort of help concerning the following questions:

1) Upon the FRC cRIO Project creation, it was only possible to choose the Basic Framework option, while our mentor strictly told us to use the Advanced option. My question is - how do we change our project's framework from Basic to Advanced, or if that isn't possible, how to create a new project with Advanced framework?

2) We've managed to create a program that controls the robot in Tank mode. However, for our driver's convenient, we would like to invert one motor, yet lack the knowledge to do so. How do we do that using LabView?

Thanks in advance to all those who are kind enough to answer,
Team #3075.

1. You'll have to create a new framework. There should be two options under the space where you enter your team IP when creating a new project. If there isn't, you need to install Update 2.

2. Find the Drive - Open 2 Motor icon. There are inputs that allow you to invert either motor.
