Crio C++ Preferences -> How to See/Edit these values in the Smart Dashboard

[slibert]

Thanks, Joe.

So w/the code shown above, do you think this sequence should work?

A) Start robot (runs above code).
B) In SmartDashboard, in Preferences widget, add a variable w/same name as declared in the code above.
C) Then, press SAVE.
D) Then, reboot robot, restart smart dashboard, and the value should show up in the Preferences widget.

I ask this nit-picky question because when we tested it, we performed all of these steps - except B. Instead, we performed A, C and D. Our assumption was that the robot code's default values would get saved when "SAVE" was pressed in the widget, but that appears not to be the case.
