HawgTouch - Free Panels & Gauges for A-10C
ClearDark replied to ClearDark's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
This seems VERY odd. If you only changed the gauges X/Y and nothing else then there is no reason why they shouldn't work. Especially if they DO work on the main screen. What kind of hardware are you using? Monitor setup? OS? -

It's different in many ways. It's easier to write code in C# and the language provides alot of tools and helpers that make the programming job less of a struggle and more of a drawing process. At least for me :) When I code in C++, It's like smacking my head against the wall. Even after almost 8 years of experience, C++ provides alot of challenge :) -

kharne, You can display individual gauges or multiple, it's fully customizable. To do that you will need to edit the XML file (your profile). If you look at it, I think the general structure is pretty simple to understand. If you are having issues, post up your profile here and tell me what you want to achieve, I'll fix it up for you :) For the Data Export to work, you will need to enable Data Export in HawgTouch and make sure the gauges you have put in your profile are datalinked with the DataImportID property in the XML. -

HawgTouch is written completely in C#. Converting it to C++ would be a tremendous effort that I'm not sure I can take on myself at this point. I will be looking further into this and see what I can come up with. Since originally I'm a C++ developer, I might be able to scribble up a proxy or an "adapter". I'll post back with more information :) -

O ya! Well, first and foremost, all the info regarding the tablet. OS, specs and so on. That would be a good start :) -

Of course it is. Read the instructions on the main page of this thread. If it's still unclear I'll be glad to further elaborate and guide you step by step how to set it up! -

I checked the profile and it seems to run perfect. Sometimes the HawgTouch tab control will act up, I've figured it happens mostly if your profile tabs and the control tabs are overlapping eachother. Usually the Tab Control is configured to run always on top and no matter what you do it should not "disappear". Try messing with the positioning and run HawgTouch as Administrator. If that doesn't solve the issue then I'll dive into the code and probably release a hotfix. -

Looks like I'm missing some graphic files from your profile, If you could package your entire profile up in the zip it would be great. Thanks :) -

I'm not quite understanding the "chaining" you wish to achieve in a logical order. But I will certainly be able to modify the code of HawgTouch to support these cases if there's a neat way of doing it. Once you get the tablet, contact me and we'll try and work it through. When there's a will there's a way. :) -

HawgTouch will work out of the box with any Windows 7 based tablets that might be out there (I haven't really sniffed around at that market). On iDevices and Android, obviously it won't work. There are some pretty good alternatives for these OS's here in these forums. What kind of tablets are you referring to? :) -

Ok, I've found the problem. Your <Gauges> nesting was incorrect. Your current profile nesting is like this: - Tabs - Tab - Controls - Gauges - Control - Buttons That's incorrect, the Gauges elements are to be nested under the Control elements, same level as the Buttons elements, like so: - Tabs - Tab - Controls - Control - Buttons - Gauges I've attached a fixed profile, though it shows the gauges you added (The frequency repeaters) on the UFC Control, you'll have to fiddle with their X/Y for better placement. 01_Mike's Profile.zip -

It seems a bit odd because even when I remove the gauges from the code, your panel fails to load. The parser doesn't fail, but there is no visible window once the profile is loaded. This has me baffled and I've never seen anything like it. I'm still trying to figure it out, I'll have an answer shortly :) -

You'll have to install the Export script first by click the appropriate button in HawgTouch :) -

Getting that data "out" is not that difficult, and so is reading it and translating it into actual graphical representation. You mentioned that you aren't a pro coder which means you do code. Which languages do you code with? I might be able to send you some understandable source right away :) -

HT source code will be released as soon as the new version will drop. But for the meantime I could help you with whichever query you might have regarding data export through networks :) -

If you are running Windows Vista/7 with UAC enabled you have to make sure to run HawgTouch under Administrator rights. This is due to Windows preventing lower-privileged processes to send keystrokes to higher-privileged processes. If that doesn't work, paste here your HT XML config so I can inspect it and see if there is anything configured incorrectly. -

I suggest using a slightly advanced text editor such as Notepad++, using it you can make sure your XML is formatted properly. You can compare it with a working profile to see what's missing, much easier to see with syntax coloring :)
