TouchGFX Designer 4.16.0 ListLayout Always reverts to "East" layout.

[RReta.1]

Hello,

Not sure if this is the correct place for an issue report. If there is a better way, please let me know.

I am using TouchGFX Designer 4.16.0 and noticed that when I use the listLayout container

it seems to only support "East" layout. Even if I change it to "South" and save the project and "Generate code", the generated code shows "East"

listLayout1.setDirection(touchgfx::EAST);

My environment is the STM32F769I-Discovery board with the screen set to Portrait mode,

in case that matters.

Is anyone else seeing this?

Hi,

Curiously enough, i faced the issue where mine was set to South and would always revert to it when trying to set it to East... What happened was that i added a new listLayout widget, set it to South directly then generated code and now it won't change again. Could you try adding a new listLayout on your side and set it to East directly ?

But thank you for reporting this, it is odd. I have created an internal ticket to further investigate and fix this.

What you can do meanwhile otherwise is to set it directly in your code, so for example mainScreenView.cpp (wherever screen your listLayout is):

Screen1View::Screen1View()
{
    listLayout1.setDirection(touchgfx::EAST);
}

This issue still persists and has not been fixed in 4.16.1 unfortunately...

Hi,

Could you share your project ? I have tried it out on my end and I do not face that issue anymore.
