Pin "LED" is still in use. If disconneted, got "verbose error" message: "boostc_18F.exe reported error code 1". Portait - landscape problem still exists. Slow update (PIC is running at 64 MHz) problem is still exists.

All the best!

Hello. I have the same problem, there is already a solution?

Hello,

Pin "LED" is still in use. If disconneted, got "verbose error" message

I have now added a Use Backlight property which should allow you to get rid of the backlight pin if your not using it.

Portait - landscape problem still exists.

I have modified the orientation 3 code now so that this should hopefully sort the text printing the wrong way issue. Other orientations might still have issues.

Slow update (PIC is running at 64 MHz) problem is still exists.

I will have a look at adding a SPI hardware interface to see if that would help. Probably a number of gLCD components that would benefit from this.

Simply copy the above file to your "Flowcode 6/Components" directory and restart Flowcode for the changes to be loaded.

Hello all,
I try to use the same display and it seems to have a problem with displaying a text string or number,
it looks the same way like on the picture from Bachmann, even the numbers are looking very strange.
I can initialise the display and change colors for background and foreground.
I'm using the newest version of Flowcode 6 and also have changed the component file to the latest Benj
has posted here and I'm using a ECIO40P16.
Is there something else to change?
Thank you for any help...

Hello,

Please can you attach a picture of your display output and your Flowcode project file and that should help me to pinpoint where the problem is inside the component code.

Hi Benj,
here is a picture and the fcfx file and a link to display I use,
https://eckstein-shop.de/22-SPI-TFT-LCD ... 32-ARM-PIC
The Flowcode file just prints two line with text ("Hello World") in different fonts and a number (1234).
But it is not readable on the display, changing colors and drawing some rectangles is no problem.

Hello,

Thanks for posting your files. Here is an updated component you can try which should hopefully solve the issue for orientation mode 0.

Simply copy the file into your "Flowcode 6/Components" directory before loading Flowcode for the changes to be loaded.

Hi Benj,
thank you very much for the component file,
it works nearly perfect, problem is that the text is mirrored in orientation mode 0 and 2,
in mode 1 and 3 the text is not mirrored.

orientation mode 0 text is mirrored

Thanks for letting me know.

Hopefully this should fix the mirroring problem too.
