Neopixel Tutorial

Trying to work through the neopixel tutorial. Is this working for others? I can't get the Arduino sketch to compile with new and old versions of IDE. Is this working for others or is the problem on my end. Thanks

Ezb And Leds

Hbridge

I have a Roli HBridge that has stopped working Forward on the Right Tread only. I have checked all wiring on EZB4 and the Hbridge. After a short run(3-4) seconds in Forward the Heat Sinked IC becomes very hot, enough to burn the skin. The Hbridge intermittently cuts in and out during this time. Any suggestions? Thankyou

I am right clicking on the window for the option but it does not appear once the control is on the second desktop. I can move all other controls as normal. Is this a bug? I believe it happened with the last update but not sure.
