Getting started with the web menu designer
Summary Our web-based menu designer (TcMenu Turbo) creates and maintains your embedded menu project online. This guide assumes initializer mode . In initializer mode you set up the basic menu structure, choose and configure plugins for your hardware, then run code generator. Using initializer, all plugin code and wiring will be generated into the and files. You menu structure...
Using menu designer as an embedded initializer
You can choose to use tcMenu embedded menu designer as an initializer. This means that you can add new menu items without having to rebuild your project. This makes it much easier to use tcMenu. In the initializer case, the intended workflow is to create a project that works with a given display driver and input configuration and then manage the...
Using menu designer to fully manage your menu structure
This is the traditional way of using tcMenu, where you allow the menu designer to manage your menu structure and round-trip every time new menu items were added. This means that you had to run through designer every time you added a new menu item, which divided opinion, some liked it; others thought that it was a painful process. With the...
Designing menu layouts using web designer
From the tab in the header, you can visually create your embedded menu in the web editor interface. From here you can adjust the menu structure, add menu items, sub-menus, and configure their properties. Any items you add will be inserted in the currently selected sub-menu. Just as with desktop designer, copy and paste works too. In addition to adding...
Menu Code generation for Arduino, PicoSDK, mbed
TcMenu supports a wide range of displays, input devices, and remote control options. To support such a range of hardware, a plugin system is required. Once you're menu is edited and ready, select from the page header to open the generator page. We'll discuss the page below. Each part of this page is discussed in detail below. Configuring the board...
Embed Control developer version for controlling and monitoring Arduino
There are two versions of Embed Control desktop UI, the first is built into TcMenu Designer and is aimed at developers and more advanced users that fully understand the menu tree, and may want to create customize views. Gradually, we're moving toward App Store deployment for most platforms. TcMenu Designer runs on most desktop systems and can monitor and control embedded...
Control embedded menu application from browser - embedCONTROL.js
Instead of the desktop version, on Raspberry PIs you can serve a React.JS based single page web application that needs no installation. It works on a wide range of mobile phones, desktop and tablet devices. It is not supported in the Arduino or mbed environment directly at the moment. Using the deployed app To open the app, simply browse to the...
Generating Form Layouts for use with Embed Control
Embed Control can load layouts that have been generated in tcMenu Designer. These layouts provide more control over the mobile layout than what is possible using the Auto UI. Either the user-centric or tcMenu Designer based UI can load forms, but only tcMenu Designer can create them. How does Embed Control show menu items? A form layout is nothing more than...
Embed Control and Monitoring IoT for Arduino, PicoSDK and mbed
Embed Control IoT solution provides monitoring and control of menu based applications written with tcMenu near automatically. When designing and developing your IoT menu application, you simply add a supported remote capability into your application as a plugin from tcMenu Designer. Once your embedded app firmware is uploaded you'll be able to access it from "Embed Control". The user-centric version...
