General HAL Output was created by phillc54
I am having trouble trying to get a hal output to accept a float value:
widget.hal_pin.set(0.1)
has no effect. It will change if I use an int.

I have tried initial state checked and unchecked - I have no idea what that means.

pushed the fix for scaling and fix the initial value option.

use:
widget.pin_value_update(value)
for s32/float values

which is a little awkward - I didn't intend it for direct manipulation but for using signals/slots set in designer from widgets that haven't been 'hali-fied'

Can you tell me what you are doing so I can improve the widget or advise a different solution?

As usual I am doing something differently...

I have an override (that uses 0.1 increments/decrements) that I want to flash the text on if the override value is not 0. I originally had a label but need a hal pin for the value. I changed to a doublespinbox but it was difficult to get the flash working so then I thought a haloutput would work, which does everything else fine except for setting the float value.

It should work fine for you now - but why don't you just make a HAL pin in the handler for this?

I have no excuse other than I didn't think of doing that. :blush:

Haha, yes, I often overthink things and end up lost...
