Title: LIne Color Change
Post by: Mike AA on August 10, 2020, 09:26:29 PM
I am trying to make horizontal lines with black text in front of it to be a visual representation of water temperature. I want the line to start off green when the temperature is low, turn yellow when it is slightly warm and turn red when its in the danger zone. I tried to use a couple boolean controlled switches, a 3 position switch, and some value connect, but my program compiled with the following error.

*** ERROR 302 *** [SDCC] INTERNAL: UNEXPECTED EXCEPTION WITH MESSAGE: {Failed to compile file: "DM1200T.c", Compiler error: 1}

I can delete the switches or the value connect and the code compiles fine.

I made sure to change the type to COLOR.

Am I missing something when it comes to changing color of an object on the displays?

Mike

edit: I just deleted the second switch and the wire after the yellow/green switch and it compiles. I added a wire, just a length of wire the the output of the yellow/green switch and it wouldn't compile.

Hi,

It's not possible to define a color with a string. You have to use RGB codes.
