GUI Composer problems

All:

I am using the F28069 ControlStick to get acquainted with GUI Composer. I compiled the BlinkingLED example, creating a variable blinkInterval. I am able to change the blink rate by changing the blinkInterval in a watch window. However, I am not able to set up a slider in GUI composer to do the same thing, It looks like it does not connect the GUI to the project...

I tried to glean as much as possible from the video on GUI Composer, but is there a link that I need to make between the project that I work with and GUI composer?

  • When you add a Slider in the GUI Composer designer tool, you need to bind that widget to a global variable on the target:

            Select the widget in the editor and in the right pallet “Binding” type the global variable name inside the "Value" field. 

    To test it: click on the “Preview” button while you are debugging the program that has the global variable.

  • Well, I had done just that, previously. However, I made sure that it was set up, rebuilt, reloaded, and this time he slider worked. It could be that I had set up my project and then  set up GUI Composer afterward - not sure, but I now have a slider that controls the blink rate. Thanks for your response.
