There is quite a lot of code. I am struggling with syntax a bit as well which isn’t helping. I think/hope I’ve put in all the recommendations. I started with the GUI template and have left that as is and just added:
MainComponent::MainComponent()
{
setSize (600, 400);
addAndMakeVisible(new VFOComponent(0,0,0,0,getWidth(),getHeight()));
}
Here is the vfo.h file.
