pcanview receive filtering and/or sort

Post by freddy.ben-zeev » Thu 5. Sep 2024, 19:20

The pcan-view (pcanview-ncurses) receive tab does not seem to allow sorting by "Rx CAN-ID" column (or by any other column for that matter) and there is no way that I know to just filter the messages I'm interested in. My system has dozens of different messages, making it very difficult to watch the relevant messages. Any way that I can do these things? Any chance of someone improving this program? Looks like the Windows pcanview is much better, unfortunately for my current application I need Linux...

Thanks,

Freddy

At the moment / September 2024 / this is the state of the Tool. No plans to enhance the Tool.

But if you use the PCAN-View for Linux, you use the CharDev Driver and so could use the PCAN-Basic API.
There are many good samples, for example in Python, how to build very simple own application.
Or you need to switch to Linux where you could use different type of applications (PCAN-Explorer, BUSMASTER, SavyCAN etc.)

I was not aware that the example in PCANBasic contains a whole GUI. It works for me just fine. Thanks!
