Hi, if the library exists in one of the two allowable 'Arduino' locations then it should be detected and used within the compile. There are no project specific configuration options that you need to make.

Questions ...

Please explain what you mean by the library is showing in the VM help screen? 

Can you see the library on the Project>Add/Import Sketch Library" menu? Is it listed on the menu under Core or User?

The code that uses the libarary. Is it in an .ino file or a c/cpp?

What version of Arduino Ide have you configured Visual Micro to use?

What is the name of the libarary?

Have you included the library in your sketch by adding #include or by clicking the menu "Project>add/import sketch library" (clicking the menu is recommended for new users)

Thanks

pl find the error:

Compiling 'test' for 'Arduino Duemilanove w/ ATmega328'
test.ino : 'liquidcrystal595' does not name a type
test.ino : : In function 'void ClearScreen()':
test.ino : 'lcd' was not declared in this scope
test.ino : : In function 'void ShowHints()':
test.ino : 'lcd' was not declared in this scope
test.ino : 'lcd' was not declared in this scope
test.ino : : In function 'void setup()':
test.ino : 'lcd' was not declared in this scope
Error compiling.

the library name is LcdCrystal595.h. just noticed, the error is removing capitalization's in the library name and shows as lcdcrystal595.h. thanks for the quick reply

Hi, that sounds like a bug we will look at. The case should not cause the compile to fail. Thanks for the report!

The simulator is something we are investigating to make it easier for Arduino users. You can make it work now but it is a bit clunky especially because all of the .ino sources are combined into a .cpp in the tep folder. It is the combined .cpp that is compiled therefore the simulator will be slightly confusing when it shows the source code and it won't be the original of your source but a copy.

Anyway here is the short wiki page that tells you how to get the Simulator working
