	As requested...still interested in a debugger extension, although the web page may be interesting as well. Thanks, djg Hi, Quote: Thanks I have removed the codeproject link from the page because the author appears to have removed the project. If you open a forum thread with your question we might be able to point you to a few solutions. There is a newer solution at experimental stage that has already been release. It launches and uses a web page on the local pc to display the debug output. This might be a better medium for you to consider because working in html/bootstrap/jquery etc. is easier than building a windows .exe that requires vs to be restarted to test. Anyway we can discuss more in the forum. Quote: Sent: 07 April 2020 20:26 To: Info @ visualmicro.com <info@visualmicro.com> Subject: AGauge First, I believe that the image on this page: [Open Source Arduino Debugger Extensibility Pack - Visualizations](https://bit.ly/2JLHfxB) ...may be incorrect as clicking on it shows the AGauge example...speaking of which...is the source available for AGauges? I've written VS Visualizers back in the day but can't find my code and want to start w/an example of a few sliders, a couple of digital readouts, etc. I need to grab values from the sliders/knobs, send it to the board, and then have the board send something back. Thanks, djg

	Sorry for to package this up for you. The attached zip is the source of the AGuage. Near the end of tools > options > visual micro you will find the location of where visual micro is installed. Below that location is a folder called "Micro Extensions". You will see the AGuage folder has an xml and a dll. That is required for the basic control to work but you can drop the source from the zip over the top. The zip contains the .xml which is required for an extension to be discovered. If I recall you can also put your own extensions in "mydocuments/visual micro/micro extensions" or move the vm ones to that location.

	Thanks but... Downloaded, unzipped and tried to build but it looks like there are missing assemblies: using Visual.Micro.Debugger; using Visual.Micro.Debugger.Extensions; Please advise. Thanks, djg

	They are in the visual micro folder. The project just produces the dll that is the extension we loaded to show the guage in visual micro. It uses the dlls from the running visual micro instance at runtime but the project should also to the dlls for the build. What location did you use for your test project build?

	Ah I see sorry You should remove the Visual.Micro.Debugger.DataExtensions.csproj from "References" and then add a Reference to the Visual.Micro.Debugger.DataExtensions.dll using the Browse button on the Add Reference dilog
