How to use this forum

This is a wysiwyg Editor ( wysiwyg in Wikipedia ).

So what you see here is (mostly) how the post will look like when you publish it.
Later we will see some exceptions, but that is the general idea.

The first thing to note is that when you press Enter it will add an empty line.
If you don't want the empty line, like I'm doing right now, just press Shift+Enter.

 

Adding images to the post:
Click in the image icon in the toolbar  and a dialog will open.
Enter an url to an image in the internet or click in the folder icon   to upload an image from your PC:

 

The Image is now in the post.
If you click in the image, you will see a toolbar to set different configurations:

You can set the image to let the text flow at it right side or left side or centered or normal left aligned.

you can edit the link clicking in the pencil icon
Or remove the image clicking in the cross.

Using the little squares at the corners you can resize the image.
And clicking and moving you can move the image to another position.

 

 

Adding Code to the post:

This is one case where you will not see the final result here in the editor.
Adding code can be a little confusing and maybe I will find a better way.
But by now this is what we have.

- Click in the code button  in the tool bar and a dialog will open.
- Select the language: Arduino, C, C++, Python or whatever language you want for highlighting.
- Paste your code in the box below.
- Press Ok or Cancel.

 

In the editor you will see something like this:

 

But after you publish it this is the result:

Main:
 do forever
    t1 = Timer0
    t2 = Timer1
    if CounterValue_0 > 128 then Set PORTB.0 = 1
    if CounterValue_0 < 128 then Set PORTB.0 = 0
    if CounterValue_1 > 128 then Set PORTB.1 = 1
    if CounterValue_1 < 128 then Set PORTB.1 = 0
 loop

Sub IncCounter_0
       SetTimer 0, 128
       CounterValue_0 ++
End Sub

Sub IncCounter_1
       SetTimer 1, 6
       CounterValue_1 ++
End Sub

 

After the code is added don't try to edit it directly in the editor or you can mess it up.

Just click in some part of the code and then click in the code button
And edit the code in that dialog.
