Graphical Configuration Tool
There is also a possibility to modify the register values directly in the Register View window
(press "Enter" to accept a new value), causing the graphical controls to be redrawn accordingly.
However, there are often other "run-time" bits in the control registers, which are not supposed to
be set during an initialization. Modifying the register values without paying a high attention to
each individual bit or bit-field of the register may cause the module settings to be invalid - even if
the configuration looks good in the GCT.
The Register View bar can be activated or deactivated by a menu "View / Register Summary".

Warnings View
Similarly as the Registers View bar, the Warnings View bar can be shown or hidden any time
when working with the GCT. Warnings View shows a list of warnings collected from across all
control pages in the GCT. By default, the Warnings View displays only the warnings from
modules selected to be saved to an output file (those with a "checkmark" sign in peripheral tree).
All other warnings can be displayed in the list if required.
A double-click on a warning item in the list activates the control page where the potential conflict
exists and a balloon-like hint is shown as a notification.
The Warnings View bar can be activated or deactivated by a menu "View / Warnings Summary".
7.2.1.6

following settings for the overall GCT functionality:
•
Generate detailed comments check-box enables saving of the "human-readable" commentary
