Post by pixsys on loading delay with the option "check client animations and overlay of native elements" ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, the option "Support client animations and overlay of native elements" needs a very powerful graphics accelerator in the system. I'm using the Pixsys srl "TC series" HMI with the code "P3" (so a 4+4 cores CPU) that runs very well also with this option active.

Post by jddaigle on Webvisu not supported due to missing browser feature HTML5-Canvas ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I'm running the lastest version of Codesys 3.5 SP20 Patch 5, with the lastest version of Chrome. And I still get this "Webvisu not supported due to missing browser feature HTML5-Canvas" fallback with a quite simple webvisu containing some buttons, images, textboxed and a grid. What can I do? is that a configuration to change? Thanks!

Post by jkopicz on How can you get the active frame index from a frame ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
In my project, I have frames that I would like to read the current active index. I change the frame index using the onclick properties of a button, then change frame index. I need to do some logic based on which frame index is selected. Is there a way to read the current active index of a frame?

Post by timvh on library is not available ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
1) In the library manager of your project select "Download missing libraries". 2) In the library manager open the "Placeholders" dialog. In here find the Placeholder which is not referenced to a specific library yet. Click in this line on the Library column and select the latest version of this library.

1) Based on your first screenshot. Do NOT filter on "Phoenix". Then first select the Ethernet adapter (of CODESYS) and add this to your device. 2) Then to this Ethernet adapter add a Profinet Controller of CODESYS. 3) Then to this Profinet Controller, add your Phoenix Profinet coupler/adapter.

Post by dhumphries on Execution Order of Function Blocks ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Function blocks in a SFC are executed left to right, top to bottom, instructions in ST are executed from left to right top to bottom as well. I think you are asking about the execution of POUs although you use the name function block, I believe POUs are executed in the order they are shown under the main task.

Post by tvm on Cannot pass array of constant size to a function as a reference ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
maybe this would be a better approach, then you don't have to pass the constant at all. FUNCTION fun : INT VAR_IN_OUT arr: ARRAY[*] OF INT; END_VAR VAR lower: DINT; upper: DINT; END_VAR lower:= LOWER_BOUND(arr, 1); upper:= UPPER_BOUND(arr, 1); see here as well https://help.codesys.com/api-content/2/codesys/3.5.12.0/en/_cds_datatype_array/

Assume I have a rectangle named rec1 from which I want to use the coordinates of the upper left corner. Is there a way to links these X and Y values from the properties to an integer defined in the main program? Note that I just want to use them and not change any of these coordinates in the program.

One workaround is to create a second application which is started after the rested of the main application. The second application starts the main application after time x and is rest after done start of the main application. No problems during the fieldbus re-start by this workaround.

Post by rjonker on codesys mqtt publish serialization ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
pbPayload is a pointer, which it expects to point at a STRING. If you point it at an address holding a different data type, it will just assume those bytes are part of a string and likely trundle along memory until it finds a null byte (0x00) that would normally signify the end of a string PublishMessage := BOOL_TO_STRING(boolVariable);

Post by timvh on <Dereference of invalid pointer> ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Yes, this can be fixed by setting the correct reference to the structure.... But by only the given information it is impossible to say what you did wrong. Maybe you can start by first creating an instance of the structure within the program to see how this works.

Did you test this with the latest version of the CODESYS Visualization add-on? Something that you might want to test is if it works better when you disable the "Support client animation and overlay of native elements". Double-click on the VisualizationManager in your project to find this setting.

Post by blitz on SMC_ERROR SMC_CGR_INVALID_POSPERIOD ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Codesys - SMC_ERROR SMC_CGR_INVALID_POSPERIOD - Invalid modulo period less than or equal to zero or greater than half the bus bandwidth. Has anyone seen this error and actually understands what it means and how to get rid of it? I tried to work around it by reducing the number of increments on the drive but then the drive itself starts throwing errors.

Post by gseidel on Movesuperimposed Command Aborted Error ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi transcend, most likely cause: one of the motion FBs was not called in each IEC cycle. See https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20SoftMotion/_sm_basic_common_errors.html. A different possible error, if you are using buffermode buffered or blending: the execution order of the motion FBs was wrong. See https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20SoftMotion/_sm_buffermode_execution_order.html. Best regards, Georg
