Product Details
PICAXE Electronic Bread Board Layout Emulator (PEBBLE) is a free, open source breadboard layout tool developed by the PICAXE community (many thanks to 'WestAust55') for the graphical representation of PICAXE Circuit breadboard layouts.
PEBBLE will work in most modern browsers. See the PICAXE forum thread for more details about using PEBBLE.

Altered code to add a new selector so that an off-board component area can be turned On or OFF above the breadboard.
Code is backward compatible and will still accept old component lists without the selector - gives no top area
Altered program code so that breadboard images only load as required/used.
This typically saves around 4MBytes of download when internet hosted.
Altered code for drawing of resistor to be more robust and work correctly under Windows 7
