I have copied an existing programme from an older version, How do I change the addresses from 'V5' to 'V6' to all of the programme without having to do this manually to each command. Thank you.

Morning,

I was wondering if there was a way to change all of the V5 components in a program to V6. I'd like to be able to change them all at once rather than changing them each individually.
Sorry if this has been asked before!

Thanks

Hello,
My programme was built on the "V5" and i need to change all of the programme to "V6" is there a way to change the entire project at once rather than each step individually?

Thanks.

Hi,

I'm just wondering if someone could help me out as I'm having a little bit of difficulty converting a program from v5 to v6.

Thanks
Joe

Hello,

Yes you simply open the v5 project in v6.

If you have any problems then please post your v5 program and let us know what is going wrong when opening in v6 and we will investigate.

The components now say "v5" rather than being on the v6 version, is there not a way to quickly change all of the components at once

Your hardware should work the same with V6 showing V5 components as it did by actually using V5
Flowcode V6 should be designed (with a few minor exceptions) to run hardware after loading a V5 flowchart, then compiling to target/hex

If you prefer to not have the "v5_" names, you can edit these in the V6 .fcfx file.
It is xml and you can use a text editor to find and replace the names, just make sure you change all occurrences of any given name, and to something equally unique.
Also a good idea to keep a backup

You can also rename the component reference by using the properties window.

Use the drop down at the top of the window to select the component you want to change. Then rename the component reference in the Handle property and this will update all the references to refer to your new component name.
