Gesture Sleep won't save

[Fett263]

Does this only happen after an upload? What happens if you remove chassis and battery then put it back in, as is, without uploading?

Just so you know how the .ini files work, whenever you upload to your board it will ignore any saved files from an older upload, this includes the gestures.ini because the assumption is that you want to start with your new settings. So if it’s only happening after an upload then this is the cause and it’s intended to function that way.

If you want to change that behavior, you can keep your .ini settings active with the KEEP_SAVEFILES_WHEN_PROGRAMMING define BUT that applies to EVERYTHING and can cause changes in your config for presets or other defines to not show or work as expected so I highly recommend reading this page before you implement.

OS6 & OS7 PSA - Using #define KEEP SAVEFILES WHEN PROGRAMMING

NOTE FOR ALL USERS updating to OS6 or OS7. Be sure to read the wiki page for this define before adding to your config. #define KEEP_SAVEFILES_WHEN_PROGRAMMING Once this define is added to your config, the intended use is to make all future updates to your saber via Edit Mode or ProffieOS Workbench and NOT by uploading changes to your config. This define tells the OS to use the .ini files on your SD for all presets and settings so if you have new styles, changes to fonts, colors, etc. or changes to volume, clash threshold, brightness, blade length or other settings that are editable in Edit Mode or ProffieOS Workbench that you’re trying to make via a change to your config you will not see those changes on your saber if the .ini files have different values. This can be confusing, particularly for new users, as you may have a successful upload but not see the changes on your saber. You also have to be mindful when adding, removing or updating presets in your config once this define is enabled (refer to below wiki article). I recommend only adding this define AFTER you have your saber dialed in to where you want it with all styles and settings for your “baseline” set. Then once you add this define, all future changes should only be made via Edit Mode or ProffieOS Workbench. If you need to add a style or upload other changes via your config, you should remove or comment out this define first and then only add it once you have the saber’s default set.
