Q:
How do I show a number generated from the accelerometer function on the Microbit to the LCD display
Asked by: John Bungard
A:
Hi John,

I would use a forever loop to set a Variable to be the equivalent value of the acceleration input. You could then use our View Text 32 blocks to Display that Variable.

Best Regards

Q:
I intend to show a variable value on the LCD. I can show this value on the 5x5 LED matrix. How can I do that on the display ? Only able to show string on that ?
Asked by: Tamas
A:
Hi Tamas,

Thank you for your question, the best way to do it is to set up your variable and then put a show string from the View Text 32 Extension into a forever loop. The string you would then need to show is a "convert X to text" block and you would put the variable in the block. This would show the variable as text on the extension. Hope that makes sense?

Best regards

Cullen

Q:
I can't find the plugin! (MakeCode)
Asked by: Gyagy Vagva¡ri
A:
Dear Gyorgy,

Thank you for your question unfortunately that set of blocks is still with the curators of the make code so until they put it through the best I can suggest is you can download the package from our github below.
