GfxDesigner add 'Delete generated code'

[ferro]

Hi Gfx Team,

Could you consider adding an option to delete all auto-generated code

folder /generated

And all files generated during the build process?

folder /build

Thanks

Hello @ferro ,

Can you explain a bit why that would be useful.

How is it different than running the "clean" of your makefile? Is it the same and you just want to have a button to call it from the Deisgner?

Couldn't you just extract the GUI folder, the asset folder and the .touchgfx file to get the smallest footprint for your project while being able to re-generate everything.

Hi @GaetanGodart 

"How is it different than running the "clean" of your makefile?"

Hm, I've never used 'clean' . I can Build from GfxDesigner then also mirror that with Clean.

"Couldn't you just extract the GUI folder, the asset folder and the .touchgfx file to get the smallest footprint for your project while being able to re-generate everything."

Tha's what we are doing at the moment and suboptimal. A button would add a bit of 'sophistication'.

I'll close this post. Thanks.

So using "Clean" solves your issue?

It is not 'an issue' really, just an effort to make Designer more complete. Probobly overthinking on my side. Please forget about it.
