ZomB 0.7 is coming soon (hopefully just before Kickoff), but while you wait, you can play with 0.7 alpha 5.
This has many new features since v0.6 such as:
Visual ZomB - an editor to graphically design dashboards without Visual Studio (required before)
VS like drag and drop easy design surface with snap lines
One click deploy to dashboard location (loads on driver station launch)
WPF versions of all controls (therefore, please make sure you have the .net framework 3.5 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/netframework/cc378097))
Compressed Video saving (previously uncompressed avi's, HUGE!)
TCP support (both ways! instant debug for non-LabVIEW users!)
NSIS Installer
Force feedback via xShake control
and a bunch of bugs fixed
Also, this alpha comes with a quick getting started guide (http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.zombdashboard/wiki/GettingStarted), a demo dashboard (http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.zombdashboard/wiki/ExampleProject), and an updated Complete Guide to ZomB (http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/docman/do/downloadDocument/projects.zombdashboard/docman.root/doc1047).
Download the installer (http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/frs/do/downloadFile/projects.zombdashboard/frs.nightly_unstable.0_6_1_276/frs1188?dl=1), or go the the FIRST Forge (http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/projects/zombdashboard) page.
Note, TCP support is only if you use C++, Java needs testing. Scale and Skew transforms will be coming soon. I'm also working on a nice video showing it all off.
If you have any suggestions, feedback, bugs, or comments, please let me know.
