Re: Quick request - screenshot of driverstationIO

We are trying to use this (for both digital and the 4 analog inputs). However, you only get a value when the robot enables in a mode - otherwise no matter how you move the sliders, and the GUI updates, it stays the same when calling the get methods with an index on the drivers station. I could swear in previous years, it would update. I have used the 'check' methods, and am getting both driver station updates and new control data (which looking down in the WPILib code, would appear to be where this comes in).

Is anyone else having this problem? Or is it supposed to work this way, and my memory is wrong ...

Thanks in advance!
