3) What exactly does the "Robot Preferences" widget do? I thought it could be used for #2 but it seems their keys cannot contain [s]strings[/s] spaces //E: the [s] BBCode isnt in this vBulletin?

It's a way of sending persistent values to the robot, as you were talking about in #2. The values are saved to the cRIO's flash memory and should remain there across reboots. I've never used it, so I don't know about the string limitation.

5) So.. on the dashboard... I can convert an integer into a progress bar. Is there a way to make it a slider bar so i can input data without converting to plain text?

Yes, I believe you can do that using live window mode, or else you can create a new extension to do so (possibly using some source code from live window).
