The right side of the Results area is cut off for me. Ill post a screenshot soon.

What exactly do you mean by cut off. It might just be that you are using a small screen or low resolution so windows makes the form to fit the screen. Just drag the bottom right corner of the window to the right and it should fix your problem.

Im running 1024 x 768 and it will only allow you to make the window so big.

Yay it's an oscilloscope...

Hmm... maybe if your programming group looking for another project, you could do variable timebase and triggers (remember the 18F8722 has two programmable analog comparators you could use for a level-programmable trigger).

What I really want to know is: How on earth did you get .NET to let you access a serial port! I thought they discontinued that.

I believe that our team will be coming out with a new beta 2 version with that problem fixed.... Sorry about the problem, and check back soon to see if the new version is up....

The 1.1 framework allows you to access the serial port via interop. The 2.0 framework supports it via managed code in the System.Net namespace of the FCL.

And API calls have always been available, which is still the way to have the most control over the serial port.

Re: pic: Robostang's Analog Sensor test software

I released an update to the software. Just go to the link I posted originally and reinstall. The installer should overwrite all the original folder's (assuming you select the same path). I don't know what is causing this problem and I don't know if the updated version will fix anything because I don't know the problem. I tried installing the software on multiple computers before I released it and I never encountered this problem except for when I tried the software on my old laptop and even then I was able to drag out the bottom corner of the window.

Re: pic: Robostang's Analog Sensor test software

I haven't run the software, but the issue is caused by the size of the controls on the form. The graph is too wide to fit on the screen at smaller resolutions. You need to anchor the graph at the top,bottom,left,right and anchor the group box only on the left. The graph will resize as you change the size of the window, but the group box will stay in place. Check the minimum width and height as well to make sure the dialog can be sized for a lower resolution. Plan B would be to drag the graph control into a panel with the scroll bars enabled.

You can verify the fix by changing the screen resolution to 1024x768 and make sure the content is visible.
