Post by chanmina on Engineering IDE from linux? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For a long time now, I have used VirtualBox on a Linux Mint host to run the Codesys IDE without any problems. Every day, I put it to good use, and it never fails. Wine is not something to be trifled with. Probably not worth the effort. For Linux PLC developers, Codesys Go might be a game-changer. Very excited to give it a try.

Hi liai, I tried it with a fresh CODESYS SP21 Patch 2 installation and SoftMotion 4.18, but cannot reproduce the compile errors. Could you please upload a project archive that has the errors? Then I can have a deeper look. https://dl.codesys.com/s/q4KcbKCcZndg6oR Best regards, Georg

Post by snhatton on How to write a for loop in ladder? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi there, little late to the party, but you could also use the ST block for in-line ST code and implement a for loop as you normally would. ST Block is super handy if you just need a small amount of in-line structured text code without creating a new POU. Hope this helps!

I think I struggle with the same issue. I tried the currentVisu variable but this is the active Visualisation. I have a dialog with a frame with frame configuration like in the picture. I would like to use the index te be used to make a button look like it's pressed/selected.

Post by mascara on CloseTargetVisu ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I need to add a button to the Visualization to close it. And create a shortcut on the Windows desktop to reopen the Visualization. This is necessary to configure, for example, a local IP address. Is this possible? What command closes the Visualization? Which program opens Visualization? System: Win10 Codesys: Control RTE V3 x64 Program: Codesys V3.5 SP20 Using only a touchscreen monitor, without keyboard and mouse.

Hello, this seems to be a known issue, but persistent/retain variables don't seem to work properly on RevPi devices. Is there a workaround to this? All I need is for a few configuration variables to be remembered through power cycle.

Post by timvh on Array of Program ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
You cannot create an array of Programs. Create a Function Block for this purpose instead of a program. You can create an array of FB instances and call each instance in a loop.

Post by timvh on Converting each character to a string into ASCII ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
A standard string is actually a list of bytes that represent the ASCII code for each character. The following part of code will give you the ASCII code of one of the characters in the string: byChar := sInput[i];
