When starting a project in Visual GLCD, there is an option to:
'Enable automatic updates'

What does this do? I could not find any documentation for this.

Is there a pdf user manual for this program, or is the help file the only way to learn the features?

Thanks,
Mike

Hello,

This option is not quite related to the project itself, but rather to the updates of the VisualGLCD.
It will enable the automatic update of the software.

There is Help file which has a great explanations, and you can also find the PDF that explains how to create the first project in the Visual GLCD.

Hi. I have my license of MikroC and Visual GLcd.
the examples on the help. The examples that are working.

I am learning to use visual glcd.
There is an example where a led is turned on with a button on the glcd (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgKPzpcPn0U ).

The code of button is

void Button1OnClick() {
RC4_bit =~RC4_bit; //Toggle RC4
RC5_bit =~RC5_bit; //Toggle RC5

}

Add a line to the example to turn on two LEDs now. My problem is that it only turns on the second led in RC5. RC4 does nothing.
I have done several tests and I always see that the last line is executed

The code modifies it by writing a function. here I put the modified code and I get the same

// Event Handlers
// this my function
void leds(){
RC4_bit =~RC4_bit; //Toggle RC4
RC5_bit =~RC5_bit; //Toggle RC5
}


void Button1OnClick() {
leds();
}
what is my mistake? tanks

I already solved the problem. I forgot that I am working on a pic of the 18f series.
The solution is that instead of using portC it should be LATC.

However, I have another question. how to use an external EEprom memory to store additional information. Visual GLCD help is not enough

Hi,

Which external EEPROM are you referring to exactly ?
Do you wish to store Visual GLCD data there ?
