Hi dear members.

I have PlatformIO as the design envirinment. I have added tcMenu library from the design environment. It has put all the files in 
/home/angel/Documents/PlatformIO/Projects/thermostat/.pio/libdeps/esp32dev/tcMenu


I have installed tcMenu Designer and it asked me for the Arduino path. I entered the above path. It asked the same one more time and put the same path.

Now, tcMenu Designer doesn't recognize the version of tcMenu (see photo1)

1. How can I put the correct path of "Arduino" (although it is really PlatformIO)?
2. What is the corect path I must introduce?

I've found a log (home/angel/.tcmenu/logs/tcmenu.log.0) and this is the contents:

Actually there is a folder with examples (see photo2)

Any hint with this environment will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Update.

I've found where the path I introduced is saved:
/home/angel/.java/.userPrefs/com/thecoderscorner/menu/editorui/generator/arduino/prefs.xml 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE map SYSTEM "http://java.sun.com/dtd/preferences.dtd">
<map MAP_XML_VERSION="1.0">
  <entry key="ArduinoCustomPath" value="/home/angel/Documents/PlatformIO/Projects/thermostat/.pio/libdeps/esp32dev/tcMenu"/>
</map>

To be honest, the libraries showing as out of date should not be a problem, it should be able to generate code just fine in that situation. It's really just a warning so you know they are not current. But platformIO keeps things up to date, so less of a problem there. Let me know if the UI is blocking code generation because of this, if so we'll put a patch in the next version so it ignores the lack of globally installed libraries.

Another quick fix, for now, would be just to put the libraries in place in the usual Arduino directory: ~/Documents/Arduino/libraries and it won't complain. Even if just the libraries.properties was in the right place!

In the newer Xamarin based UI (that we've not been able to port to Linux yet), it actually has an option for platformIO and mbed studio, where it stops looking for globally installed libraries. We'll see how much work it is to get that back into the Java UI.

BTW, we've got a few people having major problems trying to get JavaFX working on Linux. If you could spend a couple of minutes telling us how to set it up that would be very helpful to a few others who are struggling.

You are right, it genrates the code without problem.

It will be a pleasure.

Mi environment is Ubuntu 20.

The problem is that first I tried to use the java version precompiled in your web page (https://www.thecoderscorner.com/app-downloads/designer-linux-1.7.0.tar.gz) but didn't work. It showed this exception: 
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.glass.ui.gtk.GtkPlatformFactory
...
Failed to load Glass factory class


Trying to make it work I installed all those packages with "sudo apt install" 
openjdk-14-jre
openjdk-14-jdk
openjfx
libgtk-3-dev 
maven


Finally I decided to see your github instructions. Then simply cloned the github project and used the script that builds the java app: 
git clone https://github.com/davetcc/tcMenu
cd tcMenu/
cd tcMenuGenerator/
./install_linux.sh


and executed the app. This time it went well, no exception. The script installed the binary in 
$HOME/.local/bin/tcmenu

Many thanks for that, I'll point the github issue at this forum entry for now.

For the next release of the Java UI, we'll actually build the package on a Linux VM using the same instructions, similar to how we build the Win10 image on an actual windows box. Maybe that is needed to pull the correct native libraries.
