TouchGFX Designer without .ioc file

connoisseur_de_mimi · ‎2025-09-08

I want to use TouchGFX Designer in a Project for which no .ioc file exists, but generating code in the Designer fails because of the missing .ioc file.

Is it possible to work around this? If I need to use a dummy .ioc file, which settings are relevant for the Designer?

Hello,

I'm not TouchGFX expert, but it seems the ioc file is needed for the hardware configuration: LCD, RAM etc.. when generating the code for the target.

This is an example of a log while generating a code for a board where the ioc file is missing:

So it's is generating a code for the target (MCU) meaning that it needs the hardware config and not the simulator (your PC).
