Flowcode Support Board

Hey there,

I have a FC10 project that currently uses an ILI9341 display.
I would like to replace it with an ILI9388 display.

I assumed that, by following this guide:
https://www.flowcode.co.uk/wiki/index.p ... _Component

I could simply replace the component and have all associated component macros automatically updated to the new component.

However, this does not seem to work as expected.

While I can indicate that the old component should be replaced by the new one, the settings from the original component are not transferred. Additionally, the existing component macros are not updated or converted to match the new component.

Am I missing a step, or is this functionality not fully supported?

Thanks in advance.

That should work ok. I'll try this when I get a chance and try to find out what is going wrong

Hello.
If I recall correctly, you can only replace a component if all the component functions have the same name and component exists.
In this case I can't see within component Library ILI9388
Have you got the correct part number?
If you are referring to ILI9488 then that does replace OK by the looks of it, in the test Project I created.
I'm happy to convert your project for you if you are facing issues.
You can PM your project if it is sensitive and wish it to remain private.

... I posted a python script that does this at viewtopic.php?t=3279&hilit=Replace+component

It's not as smart - so you might need to tweak parameters afterwards - but it does work...
