Hello,

I will try to make my first response more concise. You need to expand the build. For example, in the screenshot below, I have marked an arrow with a red box. When you click on that arrow, you will see the build information of your application.

See the screenshot below, where I am indicating the build info. You need to double-click on the area where I have marked an arrow.

Kind Regards,

Abhijith

Is it caused by "prj.conf" content?

It is empty after created the blank project. but I have to add it in build config file.

However, the "Devicetree" tag appear when I fill something to "prj.conf" before build.

CONFIG_GPIO=y
CONFIG_MAIN_STACK_SIZE=1024
CONFIG_SYSTEM_WORKQUEUE_STACK_SIZE=1024

what should present in "prj.conf" before build? Please share the documentation with me.

But the tag will disappear when click another.

Hi Abhijith,

Referring to the attached picture, I have selected the build info of the application, but the "Devicetree" tag is not present. However, when I perform the same operation with a built-in example, the "Devicetree" tag appears.

My English is not very good, and I may not fully understand your instructions. Please let me know if you need any additional information. I will do my best to provide it.

Thank you.

Best regards,
LC

Hi Abhijith,

Thanks for your support.

I am a beginner in nRF programming, and I am following Nordic's information to install nRF Connect in VS Code. However, I am experiencing an issue where the "Devicetree" tag appears intermittently in the "Action" tab, but most of the time it does not.

My setup includes the installed toolchain and SDK version 2.9.0. I have created a blank new project and a custom board with the nRF52832. Initially, I intended to use the "Devicetree" to configure the nRF chip for my application. Without it, I am unsure how to proceed.

Additionally, I would like to know if it is necessary to have the target board connected during development. In my current state, I prefer to set up the entire environment, board configuration, and draft the program before connecting the board.

Is it possible that I am missing a step, such as creating a new west workspace? I do not want to give up on nRF Connect. Please provide detailed, step-by-step instructions to help me succeed.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Hello,

I will look into your issue. Could you tell me what happens when you open the DEVICETREE VISUAL EDITOR? Do you see any message? If so, please share a screenshot of the entire screen.

Additionally, can you try double-clicking the build info of the application you have built? You can find this when you expand the build under the Application tab.

Please see the screenshot below:

Kind Regards,

Hi Naeem,

Thank you for your previous support.

Despite restarting my system, reopening VS Code, and rebuilding the project multiple times, I am still facing issues with the "DeviceTree Visual Editor" in VS Code. Although it succeeded once recently, I am still unclear on the installation process and suspect the issue might be minor, possibly related to the installation sequence or configuration file attachment (e.g., proj.cfg).

Could you please provide a more detailed step-by-step guide or troubleshooting tips? I am also ready to share a snapshot of my current setup to help identify the problem more efficiently.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Hi Naeem,

Thank you for your support. I've tried restarting your system, reopening VS Code, and rebuilding the project multiple times, but without success.

Fortunately, it finally succeeded recently. However, I'm still unclear on the installation process.

I suspect the issue might be something minor, like the installation sequence or attaching the .cfg file (e.g., proj.cfg).

I'd like to send you a snapshot and guide you step by step. Hopefully, together we can identify the problem.

Wishing you a Happy New Year!

I am not sure what could be the issue at your end.

May I ask you to restart your system, and reopen the VS Code, and then rebuilt the project and see if the problem is still there.

Please share full screen as you would see the visual editor on the right.
