Configuring Robot Skill Settings

Configure Button

Every robot skill control includes a configure button in its title bar. Clicking this button opens the configuration dialog for that specific skill, where you can adjust the options that control how it behaves.

Robot Skill Name

Each skill window has its own configuration dialog with settings related to that skill’s behavior. One setting is shared across all robot skills: the Skill Title or Name. Every skill control must have a unique name.

Since ControlCommand() references robot skills by name, you can rename a robot skill when needed. To do this, right-click the robot skill title bar, select Rename, and then enter a new name.

A unique name is important because the ControlCommand() function can send commands to skills and change parameters programmatically. For example, you can use JavaScript to tell the Camera Skill to enable face tracking. The ControlCommand() function is available in Python, JavaScript, and EZ-Script. In Blockly, you can find ControlCommand under the Utilities tab.
