I will leave a (well earned) comment.

The way I look at it now, the only thing I will need, is the appropriate strings that needs to be generated for each component, which I can get from your design app, unless you are prepared to give me (only) a list of them, thereby protecting your original work.

I envisage a Qt6 WYSIWYG program which will work just like the Qt6 Designer, but instead of generating Python code, it will generate the appropriate strings that your Android App expects.

Those strings then can be read by a "USER" written (Python or other language) program which could send it to the Android device, via the various methods that you provided. I also hope, that while using this graphical designer (as long as a phone is connected), will display every step as the design is developed, just like your designer.

Those are the only thoughts that I have so far. I understand, that this is going to require a significant effort, but considering that I am retired, it will give me a chance to give back a little to the computing (and hopefully many more users) community, which enabled me during the past 65 years of coding, to make a good living, and enjoyment, which is still continuing to this day.

Your comments are more than welcome.

Since I am REALLY impressed by the facilities of this app, by far the most detailed available (of this kind) on the Google Play Store (Including my own failed effort on similar lines), I am considering writing a graphical (WYSIWYG) GUI-O Editor (like the one available in QT6, specifically for GUI-O.

I mean no disrespect regarding the one available now, but a more visual way to generate the various strings for each "component" may encourage greater use of this App, which more than likely benefit all current and future users.

I am soliciting opinions for:

1. Is it a worthwhile effort
2. Will it encourage further use
3. Any opinions/inputs (assuming it is judged to be worth while)
4. If I go ahead with it, I will make it FreeWare (unless the publisher has some other idea).

Don't know what on earth has happened, But after all it was the Firewall caused the problem. I must have switched it off at least a half a dozen times. But once I added it to the allowed list, IT WORKS !

Thank you for your help. I appreciate it...

I have tried 3 different phones now, Pixel8R, Sony Experia, and Huawei Mate10.
None of them worked...
Must be my PC (Win 10)

@kl3m3n

I tried the App you suggested. It did not connect either. But the small Python Client that I written, Talks to the Server, like they were twins.
So I am going to try using another phone, to see, if my original suspicions were correct, and there is some setting on my Pixel that stops connection.

@kl3m3n
Thank you for your help !
Yes, I have used the correct IP address, and the firewall allowed it.
When I try to connect, I get the following message:`
Local connection error
(Q0)
Retrying in 5 seconds
And it flashes "Retrying..."
I have written a small Python Client, which does work with the Server, and receives the correct messages. But I can not find what IS the correct reply is from the Client.
I SUSPECT, THAT IT MIGHT BE ONE OF THE SETTING IN MY PIXEL THAT CAUSES THE PROBLEM !

I can not connect my WIN 10 desktop to my Pixel 8R phone.
Using Local
It just keeps re-trying to connect
Tried several Port numbers in the 50000 range
Made at least a dozen attempts
Can anyone help ???
