TouchGFX Community Question repost - Johnson Tie - July 23 2018
I just received a new STM32F769 discovery board and could program the GUI using TouchGFX Designer.
But I could not work out a way to control the LEDs on the board. Here are my steps.
if (toggleButton1.getState()) {
BSP_LED_On(LED_GREEN);
}
else {
BSP_LED_Off(LED_GREEN);
}
This step is similar to the post in https://touchgfx.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/208798869-Compiling-LED-project-in-VS.
After deploying to the board (using gcc), when I pressed the button, the red LED (LD1) was on momentarily. When I released the button, the LED was on again momentarily. I expected the green LED to be on when the button was pressed and off when it was pressed again. The button image was changed correctly.
I also tried the method used in PoolDemoHWInt in https://touchgfx.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205074561-Connecting-the-UI-to-your-system. But I got the same result.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
EDIT 1:
I decided to add HAL_Delay(2000); after BSP_LED_On and BSP_LED_Off. It turned out the LED kind of worked. After turning on (or off) for 2 seconds, the green LED became dim again. Somehow, the green LED's default state was dimmed - is the pin already used by a signal (PWM, CLK)?
When I changed from LED_GREEN to LED_RED, LED1 or LED2, it did not make any difference. It was always the green LED that was activated.

Can you check the file GPIO.cpp. Maybe the LED1 is used for something else also. In case, then just comment out the turn on/off lines in GPIO.cpp
