CODECOMPOSER: GUI Composer does not start in CCS, runs in preview, runs as a standalone

Part Number: CODECOMPOSER

Tool/software:

Hello TI experts

I have been trying to create a GUI using the GUI Composer. The project is a custom board with TMS320F28377S controller.

The GUI Project is based on Application v3 template.

After placing some widgets, configuring the xds, uploading the application I was able to run it in the preview mode.

After exporting as a standalone it also works   (copied to C:\Users\XXXX\guicomposer\runtime\gcruntime.v13)

Now as a CCS plugin

I am using the 12.8.1 version so the directory is C:\ti\ccs1281\ccs\eclipse\dropins-gc    (instead of the suggested CCSTheiaInstallRoot/ccs/theia/ccs_plugins path which I believe would be valid just for the CCS 20.x.x)

I can see the View->Gui Composer->Applications->MyAPP.

Looking at the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6KbQK5Rnok) I just expect to run the debugger (connects) and start the app.

However in my case the Ti Cloud Agent Setup starts.

The extension to Chrome and ti cloud agent are installed.

I believe it will be something stupid, but I just cant figure it out.

Thanks a lot in advance

Martin
