	I'm using an Heltec Wifi Kit 32, version 3 card https://heltec.org/project/wifi-kit32-v3/ I use Visual Micro with Visual Studio 2019 and I'm finding that some examples provided by the manufacturer Heltec are loaded and compiled correctly using the Arduino 2.0 IDE, while if I load the same code with Visual Studio I get several errors reported, as if it couldn't find the same libraries or found other ones than those found by the Arduino idea For example the code of https://github.com/HelTecAutomation/Heltec_ESP32/tree/master/examples/OLED/SSD13... How can I make sure that the libraries 'seen' by the Arduino IDE (ver 2.3.0) are the same ones that Visual Studio + Visual Micro 'sees'? What is the exactly the path used by Visual Micro to search for function libraries and how to modify it?

	If you are using the Arduino2 IDE Configuration in Visual Micro it should automatically find the same Sketchbook\libraries folder you are using in the Arduino IDE. For manual control of this in Visual Micro you can use the vMicro > General > Configure IDE Locations screen, select the IDE Configuration you are using, then set the optional Sketchbook location (e.g. C:\Users\Username\Documents\Arduino), which contains the libraries folder you require. IDE Locations Screen: https://visualmicro.com/page/User-Guide.aspx?doc=Advanced-Config-Manager.html If you enable the vMicro > Compiler > Verbose option and build a project, it will show the "Sketch Book:" entry in the output window which is currently in use.
