Hi
as I create the list, I cannot fit the variable in second slot
Error 514 Could not fit element 2 into 1 byte
how can I get the lowest byte of an integer or define the variable as byte ?
thanks
there is no do it, I am not sure what you mean
also as mentioned, I have an int value (although the slider is maxed out at 255 of course)

found the companion app. it is asking for a code
why is it so cryptic
the do it is greyed out
The convert base10 to binary block is a fraud.
It does not give you a single byte packed binary number.
It gives you a string of text 1s and 0s that look like binary, but is counted as a number like 10 million 11.
well if app inventor does not allow me to turn a slider value to an hex byte, I am screwed, I'll have to find something with more potential
simple thing to do in any language
It allows it, you are looking in the wrong place.
AI2 Duck Typing gives you automatic conversion.
The BlueTooth send Bytes List block takes decimal numbers below 256 and renders them however you want at the receiving end.
