It turns out that this is possible in the NTX environment.
I found an example that walked thru the following steps:
- add a loop
- inside the loop, add a sensor
- next, add a number to text control
- add a display control
- wire up the output of the sensor to the input of the number to text control
- wire up the output of the number to text control to the display
Now, when you run it, the display will continually update with the values coming from the sensor.
So it's not a whole lot better than printf statements, but you know, I got a lot of programming done with that technique :)
