ARC Dumb Question

I exit ARC and save the project. When I reload the project the control windows rearrange themselves every time. It even goes so far as to move some of the controls to a separate window. I am clearly missing something to make them stay put when saving. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Myo Gesture Armband Discontinued

After reading about DJ using these, it piqued my curiousity so I went looking to see how much they cost, and where to buy. Evidently they ceased production/sales last month. They don't seem to be showing up on eBay (yet); considering they are a niche product I doubt we'll see many come up. I found a similar product: gForce Gesture Armband...

Has anyone been able to pull Wi-Fi data from controller. In other words I would like to be able to get a list of all Wi-Fi stations, get the DB from the station. If possible it would be used for indoor navigation. If not then I guess use a ESP8266, pull the data serial, then do the work to determine location. It would be easier to pull from EZ...
