    2: BridgeUpAndDown, 91 sec long, meant to open a bridge, wait and then close it again(40 sec +1, 10 sec 0, 40 sec -1). This sequence crash the app all the times I start it, but the time is randomw between 7-15 sec into the sequence.
    If I manually do it, it very, very rarely crash the app, though I have to say the App do crash from time to time at random times (out of the blue).
     
    Device: iPad mini 4, iOS 10.2.1
    App is 4.2 upd. 3.
     
    It's a shame, as I would have loved to rund some automation here at LEGO World in Copenhagen, but as soon as I add just a bit, it starts to crash. :-/  less

    Hi All,
    Here is some input to Profile Designer.
    1: Sliders
    Values goes from -1 to +1Points go from 0 to 1
    That does not make sense! 
    2: We desperatly need copy/paste!
    Profile designs are getting very complex, and something that takes quite some time to design.We really, really need copy/paste of at least Elements (including configs), Sequences and maybe other things as well.
    We need to be able to copy/paste inside the same layout (select+alt+drag to make a copy would be awesome!) and we need to be able to copy/paste from one profile to another.
    3: Store often-used elements/group of elemets.
    It would be really usefull if the designer could store elements with a setup as a 'master' that could be added to the design, maybe dragged out from a template-library. (this could lower the need to copy/paste between profiles..)

    You can change the flashing pattern in the sequense.

    Sorry for the repeat but I got no reply posting this in it's own thread.
    I've got an s-brick in my Horizon Express train and am using the publical available Horizon Express profile to run it. I've got 2 lego train motors that are hooked up to ports "C" and "D" with "D" inverted. The ports are assigned to the "Drive" slider and which works very well. The control panel also has two additional buttons on it which are "coast" and "stop". I would like each motor to be able to do all three funtions but I havent been able to figure out how. Right now the only sure way to stop is to exit out of the control panel as it is dificult to get the drive slider exactly centered so that it is truely off. Is this possible?
    Thanks, Scott 

    Version 1.5 of the Horizon Express profile was messed up by Profile Designer (the infamous 'rename interface element' bug), but there is a new version 1.6 that should work, I think.  less

The situarion remains the same, the app crashes when I add any  profile, I tried several of the ones for download and it crashes every time. Port testing works fine, I can see the SBrick being detectec and responsive, the problem seems with the App, which is also up to date form the app store.

    I just added 'Handdrawn..' and 'Horizon Express 1.6' to my app, and they don't crash.
    So it seems that you try to load profiles that use the new sequense feature.. :-/

    Adding features that is not available on all platforms, should be easy to code around in the app. I hope you learned a lesson here, and at least push app updates out that filter out profiles with features it dosen't support or simply disable GUI that use it.Alternativ is to have the Market store profile versions for the different App versions and simply download a compatible version - this is not...    less

    Dear Jakob, What do you mean, under "broken profiles"? What is the problem with the public profiles? We ask you to share these with us. If there is something wrong, we will fix it. Regards, Balint

    The 'Horizon Express 1.5' profile on the Public market is broken. The designer used the Element Name to name the different elements on the screen, and since the Designer auto-changes the Ellement Channel to the Name, all the speed elements does not co-operate.Coast and Stop does not work - you have to change the channel name after making a copy for yourself!

    Hi!
    I have two sugestions for extra features on the controles:
    - turn off the motor at zero
    - quick turn off
    My castle Gate House has 3 slides (liftbridge, portcullis and bells). When I bring the slide to zero, the motor stops but it keeps "humming". For a crane that's good (it breaks/holds position) but I would prefer an option to choose between break and stop.
    During PLUG exhibition sometimes people passed between me and the Castle while controlling the liftbridge or the portcullis and I felt the need for a quick turn-off to release all tension. Releasing the slides is not enough (with auto-reset and the above suggestion would be enough but without auto-reset motors just keep running).
    Hello, Place a simple button on your profile. Set the same Chanel name to the button and the slider as well. Give a 0 output value for the button.
    It will immediately stop the motor, and the slider jump to the zero point, and it won't "humming". :) I hope, i could...    less

    The SBRICK team worked hard to have these profiles ready for Brickfair, Alabama. Can't thank them enough for their support!

    Hi Peter,
    Just got the latest 1.5 version, and I think the Designer messed up the Channel settings - right?I made a copy and changed all the Channel names to the same, leaving Element Name as is - then it works.
