I am trying to pull data from a text file on another computer everything works but the text file gets a new number every half second and processing does not update to the new number but if I go into the processing menus and add the file again replacing the file with the same one only with the new number it will show the new number.
Thanks in advance
PFont f;
PFont g;
String[] lines;
int index = 0;
void setup() {
size(700,720);
f = createFont("Arial", 400, true);
g = createFont("Arial", 100, true);
noLoop();
}
void draw() {
background(255);
noStroke();
//line(width/2,0,width/2,height);
textFont(f);
fill(0);
String[] lines = loadStrings("compact.txt");
String[] pieces = split(lines[index], '\t');
// textAlign() sets the alignment for displaying text. It takes one argument: CENTER, LEFT, or RIGHT.
