Re: Need Help Sending Data to Dashboard

Dashboard Datatype.ctl exists in the robot project, but not in the Dashboard project. Instead of a datatype .ctl, the Dashboard uses a cluster constant by default. Adding to that constant is possible, but it's a bit tedious getting things in the proper nested subcluster locations.

Modifying the .ctl isn't quite as hard as modifying the constant, but if you're only going to be adding things once, it might not be worth the trouble to copy over the Dashboard Datatype.ctl and replace the existing cluster constant with something like a local variable. I'd just go ahead and add elements to the constant.
