Gfx Designer - add menu item that opens a project in MS Visual Studio

[ferro]

Hi TouchGfx Team,

Could you please consider adding a menu item to start MSVS project \simulator\msvs\Application.sln ? Ideally a keyboard shortcut as well.

Thank you

Hello @ferro ,

What exactly do you want?

A way to start the simulator debugger in Studio code from the Designer (just like we have "Run simulator", you want something like "Run simulator debugger in Studio code")?

And maybe a way to start it from Designer with a keyboard shortcut?

Regards,

Hi @GaetanGodart 

>""Run simulator debugger in Studio code""

What I mean is the same functionality as when I double click on Application.sln file i.e. MSVC IDE opens.

I do not want to run MSVC Simulator ie executing the code, just to open the .sln project so that I do not need to navigate to it in File manager.

Thank you

Sth like this, I click 'Open files in MS Visual Studio' (and if still available some Fx key or a combo Ctrl+XY)

And MSVC IDE opens

Ok, so the ability to open the Visual Studio project from within Designer, either from a button or from a keyboard shortcut.

I will inform the team and keep you updated.

That is correct, thank you.
