Cursor Imprimir #

print #

print displays text on the robot’s screen at the current cursor position and font.

Usage:
robot.screen.print(text)

Parámetros	Descripción
`text`	El texto, número o valor de variable que se mostrará en la pantalla.

# Display a message at the starting cursor position
robot.screen.print("Hello, Robot!")

A screenshot of the robot's screen, with "Hello, Robot!" printed in white across the top.

set_cursor places the text cursor at a specific row and column on the screen. The number of rows and columns that fit depends on the selected font. With the default monospaced medium font, the screen can clearly display up to 8 rows and 13 columns. Text placed beyond this range may be cut off or harder to read.

Monospaced fonts have characters that are all the same width, making text placement consistent. In contrast, proportional fonts vary in character width, so some letters take up more space than others. However, regardless of which type is used, set_cursor positions the cursor based on row and column size, not font style. The font size can be adjusted using set_font.

Usage:
robot.screen.set_cursor(row, column)

Parámetros	Descripción
`row`	La fila del cursor.
`column`	La columna del cursor.

# Display text starting at Row 3 Column 2
robot.screen.set_cursor(3, 2)
robot.screen.print("Row 3, Column 2")

A screenshot of the robot's screen, with "Row 3, Column 2" printed in white just above the center of the screen, beginning at row 3 column 2.

Usage:
robot.screen.next_row()

Parámetros	Descripción

robot.screen.next_row()
robot.screen.print("Line 2")

A screenshot of the robot's screen with white text. The screen reads Line 1 on the top line, left-justified, and Line 2 directly beneath.

clear_row #

clear_row clears a row of text on the robot’s screen.

Usage:
robot.screen.clear_row(row, color)

Parámetro	Descripción
