Here is CQ de AI2 Morse Code -- a tutorial demonstrating a way to use layouts instead of screens and the Any components for Buttons. Use the app to learn Morse code. :)

Nice tutorial!

I wonder if the Button4 (For number = 1 to 1 by 1) sequence could be tightened up?

Thanks Abraham.   and yes, there could be slicker code in that routine (which produces a single Morse letter)     The Button4 routine could be eliminated from the app and no one would notice. :)    I was sleeping when I proofed it.  The for each number block (but not the code within it) should be eliminated and the "number" reference replaced with a Math 1 .  This code was originally the first try at sending a complete text string-which was the wrong approach.   For the moment, I'll just leave it as 'no harm' done, just a little egg in the face as the routine 'works' correctly.
