XOD Browser IDE Arduino Upload has misleading footer

XOD Ideas & Discussions

I felt like submitting a “bug report” on github was a little heavy-handed for this, since technically if you follow the instructions it correctly leads you to download the IDE, but…

On the web IDE, when you select “Show Code for Arduino”, the footer of the modal windows says

Just connect your device via USB and click on “Upload” button

When you click on the Upload button, it then instructs you to download the desktop IDE. It would be clearer to say in that footer something like…:thinking:

Download the desktop IDE for more advanced functionality

Thanks for pointing that out. Yet one more argument to re-design the code popup. There were ideas to make it a regular tab, with syntax highlight, remove all the “Justs” and provide clear instructions.
