Hello;
Brand new to EZ Robots. Still waiting for my JD kit to arrive. In the mean time I have been using the EZ Builder software to design modifications I am planning to experiment with. It's been going great but there seems to be no autorepeat working for the mouse. I have to click the mouse every time to make the slightest part movement in the designer software module. That gets tedious, especially when in the fine adjusting mode with the part enlarged many times. Is this normal? Or is there some sort of setting to get the autorepeat to work so I don;t have to press the mouse key hundreds of times? I tried to use the online help, but all that did was take me to the tutorials. Is there an actual help somewhere for the software? Thanks in advance.

If you are talking about something else, then like Richard R said, please provide more details so we know what are are describing.
You did mention finding the tutorials, however did you read any of them?
If you could, it would be helpful to know where else you would like to see the window information presented about using the ? Question mark buttons. 1 out of 500 or so, like yourself, dismiss the information Window about the ? Question mark buttons. It would be helpful to know how to help the 1 out of 500 users.
As for your question, I don't know what you mean by "designer" and "auto repeat". if you could give us the title of the window or control? Or if you could provide a screen shot or description of where you're having trouble?
Please provide information so someone can help
Is this where you are?
The screen shot you showed is the program to which I am referring, thanks. At the top of the picture there is a group of buttons (rectangles) under the title "Camera." The buttons are labled Up, Down, Left, Right, etc. These buttons are used to move the objects in the window in the directions indicated as well as zooming the image (the collection of connected objects making up the robot being designed) in and out. When I put my mouse cursor over one of the buttons and click the mouse, the image moves in the direction indicated by the button label a small amount. To move it a bit more I have to click the button again, and so on until the image has moved to the position I desire it to be. Same with zooming in and out. This results in my having to click the mouse button many, many times. In most programs you can simply hold the mouse button down and, after a second or two delay, the mouse will go into autorepeat mode which will usually have the same effect as if I clicked the mouse over and over. This is much the same as autorepeat on a keyboard if you hold a key down.
An alternative method is to use the keyboard autorepeat by holding the appropriate arrow key down. Unfortunately, the arrow keys on the keyboard do not seem to have any effect in the Designer program.
Finish your design and check out the rest of ARC... if you're blown away now, wait until you what ARC can do....
Oh yeah, and I have already seen what the program can do with my Parrot drone. Amazing!
i notest wbs talks alot about the mous.could it be his mous settings are not,
set correctly for ARC.
That's why I have been all over the Designer program. It helped me satisfy my burning desire to have my robot NOW! Usually I'm patient about mail order stuff, but not this time.
yeach waiting can be hard.ones chipped they are very rapidly at your door.
