ESP32 Forum

Hello,

Good Day!

We are currently migrating our GUI development from Arduino to ESP-IDF based on recommendations received on the forum. We are using LVGL as our GUI library.

We require some support in setting up the ESP-IDF environment. We also tried contacting our local technical support, but unfortunately, we have not received any response.

Currently, we are facing the following issue:
- In menuconfig, the arrow keys are not working for navigation and selection.
- VS Code Version: 1.116.0
- ESP-IDF Version: 5.5.4
- GUI Library: LVGL

Could anyone please help us understand if there are any additional settings or dependencies required? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Best Regards

Moved ESP32-S31 -> IDE support, as the arrow key problem likely is a VSCode issue.

Hi @Hiten Shah

How are you launching menuconfig? Are you using our VS Code Extension for ESP-IDF ?

If you are, please try our latest master vsix installer as we made some bugfix related to this. You can use this VSIX to test the current github master of the extension by pressing F1 or click menu View -> Command Palette..., type Install from VSIX and then select the previously downloaded .vsix file to install the extension.

If you are not, how are you configuring the VS Code for ESP-IDF ?

Thanks for your response.
we use visual studio with espidf extension.
As per your guide line, we install VSIX in my VS code using install from VSIX command. it install success but when i enter "idf.py menuconfig" in terminal then menuconfig blue color window open but my arrow key still not work to navigate.

Hello,

It could be a terminal specific issue https://github.com/espressif/vscode-esp ... n/issues/6, we will check that.

However, esp-idf vscode extension offers "ESP-IDF: SDK Configuration Editor" command to launch the menuconfig, please check if that helps?

Just click that little gear icon next to the garbage can to open menuconfig.

Yes, this "ESP-IDF: SDK Configuration Editor" work in our laptop. we use this for configuration still. if any terminal related issue solved then please inform us.

Thanks.
