Win 7 VS 2012 Express
« on: March 09, 2013, 12:21:43 AM »
Hi

I've had a quick read through the PLC.net forum and haven't found this issue covered.
When openning Advanced HMI all I'm getting is a Black screen.
I'll also note I'm inexperienced when I comes to Visual Studio

Cheers Jason

Are you able to build the solution and get items in the Toolbox?

I was following the "Quick Start" steps and problem is at step 6 Build Advanced HMI
After building the Advanced HMI solution file all i get is a New window with AdvanceHMI at the top the window is full screen and black.

Thanks for the reply I'm just trying to have a play and see whats out there.

Cheers

Intelect, you should share your solution with the forum just in case other users run into the same problem.

Basically the Toolbox wasn't open when I open the solution file and didn't realise it was a Visual Studio window was expecting to open when I Build the solution like I said to Newbe issue. And the black screen was me actually running the HMI program with nothing on the window.
