Hey Kris, this looks GREAT, as usual. I like that you're also a Teensy fan! I saw it immediately when I noticed the "_t3" in your library calls. Anyway, I usually use the RA8875, so I'll take a look at your code to see what changes I will have to make. By the way, are you using the PJRC Encoder library? Is it any better than the Arduino library regarding the contact-bounce issue? I've used your graph displays before. I'm guessing this will be just as fun. Take care.
The mandatory requirement is that the display driver relies on the Adafruit_GFX--or have similar calls for fillRect() etc. Assuming your display does, the changes would be something like the following (found in the .h and .cpp) 1. changing the object type such as ILI9341_t3 *d; to accept the different display driver 2. changing the font object types such as ILI9341_t3_font_t itemf; 3. you may have to pass the fonts differently in the init calls--but i don't recall how that driver defines fonts 4. change the includes of course Sounds painful, but actually easy to do.
@@KrisKasprzak Thanks. I guessed that it would rely heavily on the Adafruit_GFX calls, so that makes sense. Since there's also a Teensy version of the RA8875 driver, things will probably go smoothly. Famous last words... There always seems to be one line of code that I miss that causes frustration for a day or two. :)) Take care.
Hey Kris. Great menu code here! Hoping you can help with one thing... I am trying grab data from EEPROM stored in a String variable and trying to get that to populate for the text in menu items. I've converted the String to a char array, and while everything compiles the data is empty on the screen. I'm guessing this has something do with passing the memory address instead of the actual data... any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated!
Here's the code that I'm using that will compile but display's empty data. I can print bankName to the serial monitor and it display's the anticipated data. char charArray[16]; String bankName = getStringValue(1300, 16); bankName.toCharArray(charArray, sizeof(charArray)); ProgrammingOption1 = ProgrammingMenu.addNI(charArray);
There are always errors during compilation, some fonts are missing, libraries are missing.""" exit status 1 'Arial_24_Bold' was not declared in this scope"" Do you have everything downloaded together with libraries, fonts and so on, thank you for your work!
Hi Kris Thank you very much for the library, I compiled it on an Arduino Due and started playing around a bit. How would I proceed to implement running a function from the menu? As I understand at the moment I can set up the variables in the menu and then exit back to the program. But I'd like to set up my process in the menu and then run it from there and be returned to the menu automatically. Thank you very much for any hints
If you are using the item menu it should be pretty straightforward. In the loop where you’re trapping menu pushes just have a function called in there if this doesn’t make sense I’ll try to work up an example
This looks great. Going to try and implement this in my project. Any thoughts on making this work with the TFT_eSPI library? Would allow it to work with a wide variety of displays.
