Hello gammda!

Thank you for trying the GUI-O application. I hope you will find it useful for your use cases.

Regarding your question... The line's rotation point is located at the start of the line. Specifying the rotation of 37 degrees means that the rotation is performed CCW (counter clockwise). To perform the CW (clockwise rotation, set the value to -37 degrees).

In order to extend the line to the edge of the screen you need to use a little trigonometry trick to calculate the new length:

new_length = current_length / cos(37°) = 100 / cos(37°) = 125.2

So, your initialization must be modified to:

|BSL UID:bsl3 X:0 Y:50 ROT:37 LEN:125.2

NOTE THAT PARAMETER AND VALUE MUST NOT BE SPACE SEPARATED, e.g., ROT:37 works, while ROT: 37 does not!

Hope you do some interesting project with the GUI-O application. You can always share them in our Share your projects category.

@sato Hello!

The final price depends on the country (due to VAT), but it is roughly 8€ for PRO license. You can check your local price here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.guio.guioapp

This is the easisest way to purchase a single license.

Alternatively, for multiple licenses we offer different purchasing options (not via the Google Store).

I hope this answers your question.

Best regards.

Implemented in v0.11.4 (already available).

Added touch response to image and video widgets. Touching the image (video) widget now sends the message in the following format: @<uid>, where <uid> denotes the widget's unique identifier set by the UID: parameter.

Hello!

You mean like a boolean flag to enable / disable date time prepending to each line in a file. For example:

[date_time] text [date_time] text2 ...

when flag is enabled and

text text2 ...

when flag is disabled?

Can you confirm this?

Thanks.

Hello,

you can create both widgets with one invisible (or opacity set to 0):

VIS:0 or OPA:0

Then you delay on the microcontroller side and send the VIS:1 or OPA:1 command when the delay expires. This will then show the widget to the user.

Hope this helps.
Best regards.

@sato said in Timestamp through Gui-o MQTT server:

Hello,
If there is also a possibility, when connected to the Gui-O MQTT server, to be able to receive, whenever requested, the Timestamp, without the need to have a Gui-O APP open?

If so, how to do that?

Regards
Fernando

Hello Fernando.

The MQTT protocol by itself does not include a timestamp, so you would need to create the timestamp on the client side.
You could also have a reference device (could also be a PC) that publishes the timestamp to some topic. You can then subscribe to this topic on your microcontroller.

@andrejk Hello!

Please download the application from the Google Store:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.guio.guioapp

or via the Play Store on your device.

After installing, navigate to: Settings -> Unlock pro and Select GUI-O Pro to initiate the Google Store purchase flow.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.

Best regards,
kl3m3n

@gammda Very nice! 🙂

@sato If the tone is shorter than set EDUR time, it will stop playing. If it is longer, it should stop after a specified EDUR time. Did you check the manual (EDUR property describes that it is ignored if tone duration is shorter)?

@al1fch Hi!

Thank you for the support and kind words.

Regarding the iOS... I sincerely hope there will be an iOS version available somewhere in the near future. That is the plan, but... As I am a single developer of GUI-O application as well as GUI-O designer (not to mention all of the website content, etc.) and doing all this in my free time, it will probably take some time. Honestly, I cannot give you even the rough timing estimate.

There are some challenges "porting" GUI-O application to iOS.

Since majority of the application is written in C++ (I believe that clang compiler for iOS allows mixing C++ and Objective-C), this would be the "easier" part. There is some Android Java code which would need to be re-implemented.

But, as I see it, the most difficult part is the setting up the development environment. Installing Xcode on a non Apple PC is a pain. I believe newer Xcode versions don't even work with older Mac's, and buying a Mac computer costs a small fortune. I have tried running Xcode on a virtual Mac OS with unsatisfying results.

I apologize I cannot give you a better answer at this moment.

Best regards,

@Bernard Hi!

Is it possible for you to send the design file (.gdf) to info.guio.app@gmail.com? So I can test this.

There were some changes (in one of the previous versions) regarding the saving / loading, but old design files should be compatible with newer versions. What was your previous version (before the upgrade)?

Thank you.

Best regards,
kl3m3n

@Bernard Hi Bernard!

You are very quick to test new functionalities... 🙂

I have implemented auto-scaling in horizontal and vertical direction independently. Please replace "ASC" with "YASC". If you need to control scaling in horizontal direction, please use "XASC" (available for XY chart only).

I promise that the XASC and YASC parameters will not change in the future.

@enniom Hello!

If I understand correctly, you would like to offer a free app for your users, which can be downloaded from Google Play Store? Possibly with different name and logo? The app would only allow pre-defined GUI (e.g., reading from an initialization file that is part of the application itself), standard GUI-O functionalities for creating widgets would be unavailable.

Although this is technically possible, it requires a lot of resources (manpower) to maintain this kind of service. I can look into this a bit further, but I believe it is currently impossible to offer this service.

Best regards,

@Bernard Hi.

To retrieve only the day of the week, you can use the RTCF parameter as such:

"|RTC UID:rtc0 HID:rtc RTCF:dddd\r\n"

You can also use abbreviation:

RTCF:ddd

or numerical form with leading zero:

RTCF:dd

or without:

RTCF:d

For more information about formatting, see the manual, Appendix C (Supported date and time formats).

Note: The formatting does not support spaces, so you need to use e.g., underscore or hyphen or similar to build your own timestamp.

Best regards,
kl3m3n

@pcu Hi!

Thank you for pointing this out. I will put this on the issues list and fix it in the next release!
I will make it so that this functionality can be disabled in order to keep backwards compatible. I will check if there are any other widgets that behave in the same manner.

Klemen

@gammda Hi.

This looks great. Thanks for sharing 🙂

Regards.

@Hub Hi!

What about using |TI (text input) widget? I can probably add some validators to ensure the entered text is HEX.

Klemen

@SteveV Hi.

Did you enter only the name or did you also specify the IP and port. All parameters must be specified...

If the tablet has WiFi, you can connect via "Ethernet". Please see my other answer here:
https://forum.gui-o.com/topic/198/could-the-gui-o-designer-be-made-to-work-with-wifi/2

True, "Ethernet" is usual terminology for internal wired connections. But in this case "Ethernet" means internal wireless connections. I think other (more technical) terminologies would be even more confusing for the user.

Best regards,
Klemen

It is possible that you are using a While - Wend loop that never ends because the Sig_Sim parameter is always "0".
Check your code and change the Sig_sim variable to 1 at some point during runtime.

Maybe you should try changing the While - Wend with an IF - ENDIF statement.

Alternatively, maybe modify Ischarwaiting() with serial interrupts something like this:

On Urxc Rxcom1_isr
Enable Urxc
Dim Rxdata1$ As String * 80
Dim Rxdata As Bit

Dim Comchar1 As Byte
Enable Interrupts
Do

If Rxdata = 1 Then
Reset Rxdata1
Print Rxdata1$ 'do something with your received data
End If
Loop

Rxcom1_isr:
Comchar1 = Inkey()
Rxdata1$ = Rxdata1$ + Chr(comchar1)
If Comchar1 = 13 Then ' detect end of line can be 10 or any other char.
Set Rxdata
End If
Return

, but it will completely change the concept of your code.

@etravnik Hi!

Can you please tell me which connection mode you are using (Bluetooth, IoT...)? Can you provide a minimal example which reproduces the problem?
