Arduino IDE from mblock scratch

#1

mblock V3- I still cannot jump from mblock v3 to the arduino IDE successfully as none of the libraries show up in the ardiuno IDE and it compiles with errors of course. Same problem on windows 7 machine and windows 8. It all worked perfectly before mblock v3 installed. is anyone else having the same problem? Has anyone successfully written a scratch code and then gone to arduino IDE from within mblock v3? If I use Arduino IDE independently of mblock everything is fine. Any suggestions as to why the libraries are not showing up?

Is the problem that it does not compile or that it does not upload? I have noticed that when moving a program from mBolck to Arduino IDE, the program will compile, but not upload. I think the problem is with an exclusive comm connection (only one program can use the comm port at a time). I have to change the comm port of the mBlock to something else, and make sure that the Arduino IDE is set to the correct comm port.

If your program simply won’t compile at all, then that would be another issue.

Hi Mike, thanks for your assistance. Yes you were completely correct- its a com port issue- even though I had disconnected the com port that I was using with mblock scratch I still had to use a different com port with the Arduino IDE… cheers. Tony G.
