I'm planning to use NXT to troll my friends, and I want to show something on the screen that I send to it via Bluetooth. To clarify, I want to type it on a computer in another room. Is there a way to do this all in the NXT software? (no coding) Thanks - Sam.

You can remotely start and stop programs from the NXT software. So create a simple program that just has a few display blocks and an empty loop at the end to keep the program from stopping then run the program.

Then there will be some coding required. You can send direct commands remotely using a library such as leJOS or MonoBrick. You could use these to draw on the display. However, if there is a program running on the NXT that has Display blocks, it will write over whatever you sent each time it gets to a Display block in the program. Apr 19, 2016 at 16:36
I just had an idea. Have the output of the bluetooth message receiver block run into the input of the display block. Then, I have some other device sending messages that I type in.
