Add a code snippet which can run in the simulator. It should contain only the relevant code that compiles without errors when separated from your main code base.
Here is an example. This is using LVGL version 9.0 so if you are using 8.x you will need to make some changes but it will give you the general idea.
This code is pseudo code and has not been tested. It will more than likely have problems with it but it gives you the general idea. I show how to render a dashed circle and also a dashed ellipse as well.
#include <math.h>
#include "lvgl.h"
// *************** ellipsis specific ***********************
/* This code can also be used to render a circle as well.
* LVGL has a built in function for rendering aa circle but it is
* reliant on angles that have a precision of 0.1 degrees. So if you
* need to have greater precision then I recommend using the
* code below and setting the raadius verticaal and raadius horizontal to
* be the same value.

This code is not going to be memory efficient and that will be the responsibility of you to make changes to make it as memory efficient as possible. If you want to use the ellipse portion of the code it is going to be processor heavy due to the floating point math, if you need to use it in a real time scenario I recommend making changes so it will use integer math.
Again this is for showing the general idea and it may not run.
